Procurement & Contracts Department (PCD) is responsible for the inventory of capital equipment. Items that departments no longer use must be turned over to the Surplus Program so the university capital asset records can be updated and the items can be redistributed to other departments, sold, donated, or scrapped. PCD manages this program to ensure that University acquisition, funding, and disposal regulations are met. If you have any questions regarding Surplus Management, please email pcd@american.edu.
