Personal Service Contracts

The University of Kentucky’s requirement for outside Personal Service contracts and design services, are to be procured and processed in accordance with KRS 45A.690 to 45A.725 and 45A800 – 45A836 (if applicable).

Procurement Cards

Accounts Payable Services administers a procurement card program designed to provide cardholders an effective and efficient solution for procuring and paying for items authorized under the University’s delegated purchasing authority policy. Additional features of the procurement card program include a “Declining Balance Card” that is a viable option to selected imprest accounts and an invoice payment option called “Payment Plus”. Collectively, these processes facilitate delegated procurement and research participant payments. They also reduce operating costs and enhance revenues.

State University Model Records Retention Schedule

The University of Kentucky must follow the Commonwealth of Kentucky's guidance related to the retention and disposal of public records.

Tax Exempt Policy

The university is exempt from Kentucky state sales tax. When sales tax is charged to your procurement card, you must contact the vendor directly to arrange for a credit. Many states have reciprocal agreements with the Commonwealth of Kentucky and offer UK sales tax exempt status.

UKIA recommends separating appropriately paid sales tax from the primary general ledger code using the 535023 Sales and Use Taxes code. This enables units to more accurately track their expenses.
