DUE PROCESS CONTRACTOR’S RESOURCES

ALL DUE PROCESS CONTRACTOR – FISCAL REQUIREMENTS:

All Contractors must complete the following registrations prior to being eligible for payment into a contract for services with the 16th Judicial Circuit.

1. Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations: If the Contractor is doing business in any other capacity than a “sole proprietor”, the Contractor must comply with the registration requirements of Title XXXVI, Florida Statutes, entitled the “Florida Business Corporations Act” and section 865.09, Florida Statutes, entitled the “Fictitious Names Act”. The registered name must be an exact match to the Contractor’s name as it appears on the Contract. http://dos.myflorida.com/sunbiz/
2. Florida Department of Financial Services (DFS): All Contractors must submit an IRS Form W9 or Substitute W9 using the name exactly as it appears on the Contract. https://flvendor.myfloridacfo.com/
3. Department of Management Services (DMS), Vendor Portal: Complete a registration on the “MyFloridaMarketplace” system as a vendor. https://vendor.myfloridamarketplace.com/

The Vendor/Contractor is responsible for maintaining these registrations and must ensure the information is kept current to prevent issues with payment processing. Failure to maintain any of these registrations will result in the Contract’s Vendor status becoming “inactive.” The Circuit will not be able to process payments to the Contractor until the status becomes active again. The Circuit will not be liable for any interest or other consequences for payments not made due to an “inactive” vendor status.
