DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES

I am the warranted Contracting Officer for the Sidney location, which means that I am the only person here who has the authority to enter into binding agreements with contractors and vendors above the micro purchase threshold. If the purchase is beyond the authority of my warrant, I assist in its preparation and forward it our area office in Fort Collins, CO.

I provide guidance to all employees on the correct process that must be followed in all purchasing actions. I am the LAPC (Local Agency Program Coordinator) for the credit card program. We currently have 21 credit card holders that I train, supervise and advise.

I also am a Notary and provide this service for our employees. I also maintain the real property records as well as the accountable and local property inventories.

CURRENT PROJECTS

  • Furnishing and outfitting the new 21,500 sq ft office/lab complex.
  • Updating all inventories for the upcoming audits.

  • Preparing for year-end fiscal closeouts and preparing for all ongoing contracting for a smooth transition into the next fiscal year.

EXPERIENCE

I was the Accounting Tech for ARS in Bozeman and then transferred to Sidney in August of 1996 where I later became the Purchasing Agent in 2000.
