Vendor Fact Sheet Instructions

Thank you for your interest in doing business with the Seattle Housing Authority (SHA). We look forward to doing business with you. If you have any questions about completion of the Vendor Fact Sheet, please call us at (206) 615- 3379.

In order for SHA to make payments to you or to procure goods or services from you, we need the information requested on the Vendor Fact Sheet, which also serves as a substitute IRS W-9 Form. The information about you will be entered into our computerized payment system and will allow us to make required reports to the Federal government about our business and payment transactions.

Substitute IRS Form W-9 Certification: In completing the Vendor Fact Sheet, you must sign the “Substitute IRS Form W-9 Certification” or backup withholding will apply. If you are subject to backup withholding and you are merely providing your correct taxpayer identification number to SHA, you must cross out the portion of the certification after the word “and” in line two, through the end of line five, before signing the form. Detailed instructions about IRS Form W-9 are included on the form, which may be obtained by calling our office at (206) 615-3379 or visiting the IRS web site at www.irs.gov.

Certification of Eligibility: In order to do business with SHA, the Vendor must be eligible to:

1) Be awarded contracts by any agency of the U.S. Government, HUD, or the State in which this Contract work is to be performed; or,

2) Participate in HUD programs pursuant to 24 CFR Part 24.

Use the websites of the General Services Administration and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to verify eligibility of the firm and its principals. By signing the Vendor Fact Sheet, the Vendor understands that the certification of eligibility is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when SHA agreed to enter into the transaction with the Vendor. SHA may require the Vendor to submit such certification on an annual basis depending on the terms of its contract or the frequency of its business transactions with SHA. If the Vendor subcontracts any portion of the work, the Vendor will be required to submit a similar certification of eligibility to SHA for any Vendor subcontracts. Any written contract executed between SHA and the Vendor shall include these provisions, which may also be referred to as Suspension/Debarment provisions.

Contract Payments: Unless SHA grants a waiver, its method of contract payment for contracts of one million or more is through its Bank of America epayables program. Payments will be made electronically through a virtual Visa credit card. Benefits for using this method include reduced labor costs associated with the processing of checks and enhancing cash flow by eliminating float time associated with the mailing of checks. To learn more about the program, please click here or copy and paste the following URL into your browser:

www.bankofamerica.com/epayablesvendors. For new vendors, SHA will automatically send an enrollment form upon contract award. If you have questions about the program, please contact Tran Wong, SHA’s Accounts Payable Manager, at 206-615-3483 or twong@seattlehousing.org.

• Small Business: A small business means a business concern, including its affiliates, that is independently owned and operated, not an affiliate or subsidiary of a business dominant in its field of operation, and qualified as a small business under the criteria and size standards in 13 CFR 121.
