Upon positive appropriations, the purchase order is issued. The item or service is placed on order by the requesting party. Upon satisfactory delivery of the item or completion of the job - the county official or department head submits the approved invoices for payment. Payment is issued for the invoices by the Department of Finance utilizing county warrants.

As the purchasing agent, the Director of Finance issues all formal and informal bids. Weakley County's bid limit is $10,000 for any item, service, or contract.
