The Procure department is charged with the responsibility of acquiring, safeguarding and disposing temporal goods of the Church. To exercise this mandate, the department has full time personnel and consultative body (Finance Council) appointed by the Bishop and chaired by him.

The department issues purchase orders, develops term contracts, and acquires supplies and services. One role of the office is to procure all necessary materials needed for daily operations of the Diocese. 

The Accounts Office

This provides accounting services and financial support to the Diocese of Eldoret. The office records accounts payable and receivable, inventory, payroll, fixed assets and all other financial elements. The department’s accountants review the records of each department to determine the Diocesan financial position and any changes required to run the Diocese cost effectively. The office is also in charge of procuring assets for the Diocese of Eldoret. In procuring it follows all the regulations and policies within its mandate and scope.

The department is also charged with the safe custody of the assets, record keeping of all the assets, insurances and depreciations according to the set institutional policies and within the governing laws.

In regard to the disposal of assets, the office is involved in this process from its initiation to its completion.

All accountants report directly to the procurator and in his absence to the assistant procurator. The protocol for the accountants is to first give a report to the senior accountant who refines the reports appropriately and then submits them to the procurator.
