Note:
Normally, only new vehicles may be purchased. DOAS has authority to grant permission to purchase used vehicles or to enter into lease agreements for vehicles, but the institution must provide justification if seeking such permission. All vehicles must be ordered using DOAS statewide contracts.
The transfer of vehicles between เหล๖สำฦต institutions is allowed with the proper inventory transfer records maintained since the entire university system operates like one state agency. If an institution desires to transfer a vehicle to an agency outside of the เหล๖สำฦต, then the institution must submit a State Surplus Property Transfer form and invoice via DOAS for approval.
