Non-employees working on behalf of KCTCS and on approved work travel
status are not eligible for lodging paid with the procurement card. The
KCTCS System Office - System Director of Business Services may approve

Procurement card Lodging Guidelines
All travel arrangements must be made using the most economical means available and feasible.
Lodging paid with the procurement card must be noted on the employee's travel reimbursement expense
report, and employee should sign and attach a copy of the itemized receipt as documentation. The itemized
receipt must be signed by the employee and turned in to the local procurement card administrator to be filed
with the procurement card statement.
The employee must contact the hotel prior to stay to find out if a credit card authorization form is required. If so,
the employee must not fax or email the full credit card number (only last 4 digits) nor should the 3-digit security
code be filled in, and the employee must provide any additional requested information to the hotel by phone.
The employee must verify with the hotel that all required information has been provided, including a KCTCS
Tax Exemption Certificate.
The employee MUST present a personal form of payment (personal credit card) at the time of check-in at hotel
for all incidentals including but not limited to: early check-in fee, room upgrade, room service, beverages,
snacks, movies, water, WI-FI, printing/faxing, gift shop, spa, valet, phone calls, shuttle services to and from
airport/hotel, concierge services, tips, gratuities, etc. The employee would then seek reimbursement through
the regular KCTCS reimbursement process for allowable charges. Wi-Fi charges may be reimbursed if used
for KCTCS Business with approval obtained from their Supervisor.
Employee would need prior travel approval from their supervisor prior to securing lodging.
Conference registrations that include lodging and meal deposit are acceptable on the procurement card if
required with conference registration.
When required by the lodging establishment, the employee’s lodging stay may be posted to the procurement

to notify the supervisor of any change of plans for a room that has been reserved on a procard, and must meet
the reservation deadlines for cancellation as provided by the hotel.
