New York Questionnaire Form PDF Details

In a move to streamline the process of collecting data from vendors aiming to engage in business with New York City, the administration under Mayor Bill de Blasio and spearheaded by City Chief Procurement Officer Lisette Camilo introduced an updated version of the VENDEX questionnaires on September 25, 2014. These questionnaires now come in a fillable format though they must be completed, printed, and submitted in paper format. Comprising the Vendor and Principal Questionnaires alongside a Certification of No Change form, they serve as a critical tool for ensuring that the city only conducts business with responsibly vetted vendors, aligning with the mandate in the city’s charter. The meticulous design of these forms, while accommodating various data types, demonstrates a commitment to precision and security, particularly in handling sensitive information like social security numbers and employer identification numbers. Despite this digital shift, the insistence on paper submission underscores a cautious approach to data integrity and verification. This adaptation also reflects an ongoing pursuit of efficiency in the city’s procurement processes, while setting clear expectations for the vendor’s compliance and complete disclosure, crucial for maintaining transparency and trust in public and private sector interactions.

VENDOR QUESTIONNAIRE

The Vendor Information Exchange System (VENDEX) includes two questionnaires – the vendor questionnaire and the principal questionnaire. These have been developed to collect information from vendors who wish to do business with New York City, to ensure that New York City obeys the mandate in its charter to do business only with responsible vendors.

Questionnaires may be obtained in paper format from the VENDEX Unit (212-341-0933) or downloaded from the NYC website at http://www.nyc.gov/vendex.

Questionnaires must be completed in paper format. All questions must be answered. A response of “Not Applicable (N/A)”, or the equivalent, is not acceptable. Answers must be typewritten or printed in ink. If more space is needed to respond, photocopy the corresponding section’s page, check the box that additional information is attached, and attach the photocopied page to the questionnaire.

The publication “Vendor’s Guide to VENDEX” provides assistance and explanation for the questionnaires, including definitions of terms or phrases written in bold face throughout the questionnaires. If you have not obtained a copy of this publication, please download a copy from the New York City web site, or contact the VENDEX Unit at 212-341-0933. All forms must be sent to MOCS: 253 Broadway, 9th Floor; New York, New York 10007. If you have questions, contact the VENDEX Unit at 212-341-0933.

ANSWER THIS QUESTIONNAIRE CAREFULLY AND COMPLETELY. FAILURE TO SUBMIT A FULLY COMPLETED QUESTIONNAIRE MAY RESULT IN THE REJECTION OF THE VENDEX SUBMISSION. MAKING

ANY UNAUTHORIZED CHANGE OR ALTERATION TO THE

QUESTIONNAIRE WILL RENDER IT VOID.
