State of Ohio Supplier Operations.pdf

This document is a State of Ohio Supplier Operations informational guide for the Ohio Supplier Portal, published by OBM (Office of Budget and Management) Shared Services. The guide provides comprehensive instructions for businesses and individuals interested in becoming suppliers for the State of Ohio, detailing the registration process through the online Supplier Portal (https://supplier.ohio.gov/). Key features include the requirement to create an OHIID (Official Identity Management Solution) account, which allows secure access to multiple state applications using a single user ID and password. Suppliers can register, set up electronic funds transfer (EFT), process forms, and access procurement opportunities through this system.

The document outlines the Supplier Operations services, which include supplier self-registration, EFT setup and maintenance, Medicaid EFT processing, 1099 form processing, and supplier inquiries. The portal is accessible across multiple devices and enables suppliers to view real-time status of purchase orders, invoices, and payment information. Suppliers can perform various actions after registration, such as accessing the Bid Center, updating commodity codes, managing users, and updating their information. The guide provides contact information for OBM Shared Services, including phone numbers and email, and emphasizes that the online form submission process is not currently available for mobile devices.
