To ensure that District taxpayers know how, where and when their money is being spent, the Office of Contracting and Procurement will post all purchase orders and purchase card transactions on its website. As agencies spend taxpayer dollars, their transactions will be made public. This new initiative is one of many tools that will assist in preventing waste, fraud and abuse.
