The purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines for the purchase of a company’s products for internal use.

Under this policy, the process for internal orders states that when initiating an order for a sales force unit, internal use unit, giveaway unit or expensed unit, the requester must fill out an internal purchase order. The internal purchase order form must be authorized in accordance with the commitment and expenditure authorization policy based on standard costs. All U.S. employees should return their completed internal purchase orders to the company's corporate address.
