Hi Jesse, After talking to Myrle, our Treasurer, I suggest a small change to the proposed process.
The Cordova PMC still needs to identify names, apache ids, and maximum spend for each item. But Treasury also need a person (coordinator) who will take responsibility for actually issuing the cards for each purchaser. This will require that person to log into the Ramp system, fill a small form, and then send the credit card information to the purchasers. Training on the Ramp system should take about 10 minutes via a Zoom call with me. Actually issuing the card should take the coordinator about 5 minutes for each card issued. I'm looking forward to working with you on the details. For now, a vote to approve the names, apache ids, maximum spend per purchaser, and coordinator will get the ball rolling on this.
