A TRUE COPY CERTIFICATION ON LAST PAGE J.R. SMITH, CLERK Individuals who would personally receive a grant or cooperative agreement award from the Federal government apart from any business or non-profit organization they may operate are exempt from this requirement. Who at my institution is responsible for requesting a DUNS number? This will vary from institution to institution. This should be done by someone knowledgeable about the entire structure of your institution and who has the authority to make such decisions. Typically, this request would come from the finance/accounting department or some other department that conducts business with a large cross section of the institution. We are an organization new to Federal grant funding so we obviously need a DUNS number. But we don't want to be included in any marketing list. What can we do? Inclusion on a D&B marketing list is optional. If you do not want your name/organization included on this marketing list, request to be de -listed from D&B's marketing file when you are speaking with a D&B representative during your DUNS number telephone application. Who do we contact if we have questions? If you have questions about applying for a DUNS number, contact the Dun & Bradstreet special phone number 1-866-705-5771. If you have questions concerning this new Federal -wide requirement, contact Sandra Swab, Office of Federal Financial Management, 202-395-3993 or via e-mail at sswab(a)omb.eop.gov. 12. Substitute Form W-9 Submission and My Florida Marketplace (MFMP) Registration For the purpose of this Agreement, a Sub -Recipient is also a Vendor. The State of Florida requires vendors doing business with the State to submit a Substitute Form W-9. The purpose of a Form W-9 is to provide a Federal Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), official entity name, a business designation (sole proprietorship, corporation, partnership, etc.), and other taxpayer information to the State. Submission of a Form W-9 ensures that the State's vendor records and Form 1099 reporting are accurate. Due to specific State of Florida requirements, the State will not accept the Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. Effective March 5, 2012, State of Florida agencies will not be permitted to place orders for goods and services or make payments to any vendor that does not have a verified Substitute W-9 on file with the Department of Financial Services. Vendors are required to register and submit a Form W-9 on the State's Vendor Website at https://flvendor.m) floridacfo.com. Sub -recipient must register with My Florida Marketplace utilizing myfloridamarketplace.com website concurrent with the execution of this agreement. Registration must be complete prior to returning this agreement to FDEM for execution. 13. Small, Women Owned and Minority Owned Businesses 2 CFR 200.321 requires a non -Federal entity take all necessary affirmative steps to assure that minority businesses, women's business enterprises, and labor surplus area firms are used when possible. These affirmative steps must include: (1) Placing qualified small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises on solicitation lists; (2) Assuring that small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises are solicited whenever they are potential sources; (3) Dividing total requirements, when economically feasible, into smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises; 54
