If the maintenance required is not done at a garage where the credit card may be used, the work may be paid for by cash or other credit card. All invoices for repairs/service must record the University vehicle number and license number. Before any major maintenance/ repair work is done, the Procurement Officer should be contacted so that the problem may be discussed and a course of action determined.
