This is a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) submission form required by the City of Pasadena for a Banking Services solicitation in California. Qualified financial institutions responding to the City's Request for Proposal must submit this form as part of their proposal response. The form requires contractors to provide their UEI, a 12-character alphanumeric value from SAM.gov, along with standard business information including contractor name, business address, contact name, and telephone number. Failure to submit the required UEI will result in the response being deemed non-responsive and ineligible for consideration.

The Banking Services opportunity requires the selected financial institution to be a federal or state-chartered banking entity as defined by California Government Code and qualified as a depository of public funds under California Government Code Section 53648. The institution must collateralize the City's deposits in accordance with applicable California Government Code sections and execute a collateralization agreement for public funds. Additionally, the financial institution must maintain at least a "satisfactory" Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) rating and equivalent rating from a nationally recognized bank rating service, operate a full-service branch location within the City of Pasadena limits, and provide a dedicated governmental services unit to handle the City's general and payroll accounts.
