T2551 Exhibit 4 - Executive Branch Flow 1.14.26.pdf

This is an exhibit document for Bid Solicitation #26DPP01223 issued by the State of New Jersey for Credit Card Payment Processing services. The document provides a technical specification in the form of a sequence diagram illustrating the Executive Branch Flow for credit card payment processing transactions. The diagram outlines the interaction between multiple system components: a customer browser, client application, state web service, and vendor web service/application. The transaction flow begins with a customer initiating a purchase through the client application, which triggers a transfer to the vendor's site for payment processing. The sequence includes steps for transaction initiation, redirect to vendor for payment card information entry, retrieval of transaction details, receipt/confirmation display, and final redirect back to the client application for transaction completion and confirmation.

The exhibit serves as a technical architecture requirement for potential vendors responding to the bid solicitation, establishing the expected system integration and data flow processes that must be supported by the selected credit card payment processing vendor. This specification ensures that the vendor's solution can seamlessly integrate with the State of New Jersey's existing web services and client applications while maintaining appropriate security protocols for payment card information handling. The diagram demonstrates the state's requirement for a vendor solution that can facilitate secure, multi-step payment transactions with proper redirect mechanisms and transaction detail retrieval capabilities across the integrated systems.
