The University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC) does not prequalify suppliers. When a department identifies a new supplier they want to do business with, they will request a W-9 from the supplier. The W-9 must be signed and dated within the past twelve (12) months.

When they are in possession of the documents identified below, the department will enter the new supplier request into KUMC’s ERP system, Workday. Once approved, the department can place an order with the supplier.

Failure to include all necessary documents will result in the rejection of the submission.

• KUMC Supplier Agreement Form (PDF)
  The KUMC Supplier Agreement Form (SA) is required for all new suppliers who want to do business with the University. This form is not required for individuals.
• Research Institute ACH Form (PDF)
  KU Medical Center is made up of two businesses – the University and the Research Institute (RI). If a department uses funds only from the RI and the supplier wants to be paid via Automated Clearing House (ACH), this form must be submitted, also.
