No New Mandates!

You have the power to stop unfunded mandates from your home or on the go!
This year's state budget went to great lengths to prevent new, unfunded mandates on school districts while adding much-needed additional funds. But state leaders often impose new unfunded mandates between the time the budget is passed and the end of the legislative session. Our communities can no longer afford this legislative approach.
The New York State School Boards Association has endorsed the New York State Association of School Business Officials' new p-Card.

NYSASBO Purchasing Card Program
This program is unique, competitive and fully customizable as a benefit to NYSASBO School District Members. Along with the numerous other benefits of the NYSASBO p-card listed below, comes a competitive rebate program just for purchasing goods and services you’re already using in your district.
This program is a tool to streamline the purchasing process through the use of technology. The reduction in purchase orders and paper checks result in a savings of time and money. NYSASBO members have the opportunity to join this no-fees program, which is currently used by over 650 school districts across 14 states.
What is a p-Card?
A p-Card is similar to a credit card without a revolving line of credit, can have set limits to control transactions and has authorization parameters that can be managed 24/7 through a secure web portal by district administration.
Advantages of NYSASBO’s p-Card program:
- Eliminates the cost and hassle of negotiating a purchasing card contract
- Provides a tested, easy-to-use program with no startup costs or annual fees to the district
- Combines purchasing power to provide a larger rebate than could be obtained with a stand-alone district contract
- Allows your school district to ensure adequate controls and proper audit trails
- Creates a user group/support network not obtainable with multiple programs and different contracts
- Provides excellent training and user group support
