District Semi-Annual Expenditure Analysis (Business Division)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) Procurement Department conducts a semi-annual expenditure analysis.  Payment information is sourced from our Lawson Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software (now called Infor) and the purchasing card system (P-Card).  This analysis determines if HCPS is in compliance with Florida Statutes, Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) 6A-1.012 Purchasing Rules, and HCPS purchasing policies regarding competitive solicitation requirements.

Last year, we expanded our analysis to include a detailed review of all HCPS payments in an effort to identify the percentage our Small Business Enterprise (SBE) vendors were receiving, as compared to our total competitive expenditures.

This information was shared with existing and potential suppliers at our Goods and Services Forum held on February 18, 2013, at the Sam Horton Instructional Services Center (ISC).
