Dear Vendor:
Your organization is currently a supplier/contractor with the City of Richmond, and you have or
would like to make a change or an update in the information we currently have on file with the
Procurement Department.
All changes can be made by logging into the Supplier Portal or by completing the attached
documentation which includes form W-9, the ACH direct deposit form, and the EDI Payment
Agreement for Contractors. Forms should be emailed to supplierregistration@richmondgov.com
or Faxed to 804-646-5989.
We would like to extend to your company the option of receiving recurring payments by
Automated Clearing House (ACH). ACH offers many benefits to the supplier and to the City of
Richmond. You will receive funds in a timely manner as payments made by ACH are deposited
directly into the Company’s bank account, detailed invoice information and an email notification
that the funds have been transferred to your account. Similar to using checks, ACH payments are
immediately available on the date the payment is paid to you.
As the City of Richmond's preferred payment method is ACH, we are requesting that you
include correct banking information, a point of contact, and a valid email address for your
organization.
Should you have any questions about this procedure, please feel free to contact the
Procurement Office, at (804) 646-5716.
Sincerely,
The Department of Procurement Services
