Use of Appropriated Funds for Promotional Sample Clauses

Use of Appropriated Funds for Promotional. Items NIH considers promotional items to be an extraneous expense. Therefore, ICs shall not use appropriated funds to purchase promotional items. Promotional items include, but are not limited to: Clothing and commemorative items such as pens, mugs/cups, folders/folios, lanyards, and conference bags that are sometimes provided to visitors, employees, grantees or conference attendees. Typically, items or tokens to be given to individuals are considered personal gifts for which appropriated funds may not be expended. ICs may use those promotional items that have been purchased prior to January 3, 2012 in order to dispose of excess stock. However, when doing so, IC EOs should carefully consider whether using the promotional items will directly further the IC’s mission. Only in rare cases, that is when the IC can demonstrate that the promotional items are necessary expenses (see “Necessary Expense Rule,” (GAO Redbook p. 4-19) that directly further its mission, may such items be purchased. Any such necessary expense justification must be in writing, explain why the purchase is a necessary expense that is critical to the mission, and why the costs are considered reasonable. The justification must be approved, in writing, by the NIH Deputy Director for Management (DDM), without further delegation, and be included in the associated acquisition file, such as the purchase card log or contract file. A request for approval must be made via the IC EO who shall prepare a Promotional Item Approval Form (see Attachment D) and submit the justification to the email box XxxxxxxxxXxxxxxxxXxxxxx@XXX.xxx for consideration by the DDM. Requests shall be submitted no later than 30 calendar days prior to intended award or obligation of funds. No obligation of funds and no purchase should be made prior to receipt of written approval from the DDM.
