This is a Direct Deposit exhibit document for a Texas state and local contract opportunity. The exhibit provides instructions and requirements for contractors regarding direct deposit payment procedures for state payments. The document outlines the mandatory use of electronic funds transfer (EFT) for all vendor payments, specifying that contractors must establish and maintain a direct deposit account with a financial institution to receive state payments. The exhibit details the necessary banking information required from contractors, including routing numbers, account numbers, and account holder verification, and establishes procedures for submitting and updating direct deposit information with the state. The document emphasizes compliance requirements and the state's preference for electronic payment methods to streamline financial transactions and reduce processing costs associated with traditional check payments.

The exhibit functions as a procedural requirement rather than a pricing or financial terms document. It establishes that all vendors under this contract opportunity must comply with the state's direct deposit mandate as a condition of contract performance and payment receipt. The document serves as a standardized exhibit applicable across state procurement processes, ensuring uniform payment administration and reducing administrative burden on the state comptroller's office. There are no pricing terms, set-asides, renewal options, or funding amounts specified within this exhibit, as its sole purpose is to establish the mechanical and administrative framework for electronic payment delivery to contractors.
