Policy:

In accordance with IRS regulation, the University is required to maintain a current IRS Form W-9 on file for all suppliers used by the University.  This rule encompasses any person or company to whom the University remits payment for the purchase of goods and services.  Because of the volume of suppliers the University uses, it is the responsibility of each department to ensure a W-9 is received from a supplier when submitting a supplier request.
