ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFER PAYMENT

NAVFAC Hawaii implemented the use of Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) for the payment of contractor invoices.

See Federal Acquisition Regulation Clause 52.232-33, Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer – System for Award

Management, included in this solicitation. If awarded the contract, in order for the EFT payments to be successfully transmitted to your company bank account, you should verify that your SAM account is complete and accurate on www.SAM.gov. Verification of your company information in SAM is critical to timely processing of your invoices and receipt of payments. In addition, there are mandatory financial fields you must complete. In order to facilitate the EFT payment to your company bank account, it is vital that your CAGE CODE and DUNS number in the SAM match that of the awarded contract. Otherwise, there will be delays in payment and invoices will be returned to you until consistency can be established between the SAM and the awarded contract.
