What is a Setup ID?
Where do I obtain this? |
|
The Setup ID is
unique identifier that links the supplier information to the TI
buyer that made the request.
This is provided in the subject
line of the invitation email to register with Texas Instruments.
Unsolicited requests are not accepted or setup on the
database. |
|
Why are there many questions on the setup form?
|
|
TI has legal and
business requirements to report information about our supplier
database. For example,
TI is required to report spend information for all 1099MISC
reportable suppliers to the Internal revenue Service.
In addition, TI has corporate
goals for spend with certified minority and women-owned
businesses which need to be accurately identified in the
supplier database. Questions are defined to meet all TI
departmental legal and business needs only and are never
publicly disclosed. |
|
If I am already registered with Texas Instruments, how do I
update my information? |
|
Refer to the
Supplier Information webpage for Update Existing Supplier
Information at TI. |
|
Will TI do business with me if I answer no for the following:
affirmative action, ESH, Ancient Forest Fiber?
|
|
TI Policies and
Procedures states that TI will do business with those suppliers
that have complied with the local and federal laws regarding
these issues. Refer to
definitions for a complete
description. |
|
Will TI do business with me as a Minority/Women Business
Development (MWBD) supplier if I am not certified with an
agency? |
|
TI will not
discontinue an existing relationship solely for
non-certification.
However, as a non-certified M/WBE supplier to TI, your business
will be at risk should a
qualified certified M/WBE supplier compete for the same
commodity or service.
For new suppliers to TI, we
currently accept new non-certified suppliers as long as you are
pursuing certification. Beginning 2006, we will discontinue that
practice and only engage certified suppliers. For more
information, refer to the
MWBD Website. |
