State Auditor Suzanne Crouch is announcing that Hoosiers now have access to view Indiana’s specific purchase and travel card payments on the Indiana Transparency Portal website.

Purchase cards, also referred to as procurement cards, are used by eligible State employees for emergency obtainment of goods when they are not able to go through their agency’s standard procurement process. Travel cards are available to State employees who frequently travel for State business and are used to purchase flights, rental cars and hotel stays.

The purchase and travel card programs are designed to assist with business-related purchases and help streamline the procurement and payment processes.

You can hear Crouch’s interview in the Leon-Tailored Audio above.  It runs approximately 6 minutes.

To view purchase card transactions on the Indiana Transparency Portal visit www.in.gov/itp, click on State Expenditures and Assets, scroll down and view the State Expenditures and Assets Searchable Database. “Purchase Card” and “Purchase Card Graphs” tabs are located at the top.
