Becoming a TriWest Supplier
TriWest emphasizes the importance of competitive bidding as a good business practice. We may consider ability, integrity, financial
status, performance, reliability, quality of product, delivery and overall customer-supplier relations in evaluating a potential supplier
before and during a purchasing procurement. Relationships with our suppliers must be based on quality and dependability of goods and
services purchased, fair pricing and prompt delivery, and a commitment to conduct business in an ethical manner. The result of this
approach ensures fair and impartial dealings with our suppliers and the best value to our customers.
All small business vendors are encouraged to register with the Central Contractor Registration System (CCR).
- The Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database is the primary government repository for contractor information.
- “Registered in the CCR database” means that the contractor will need to provide all mandatory information, including the
D-U-N-S number to include validation of the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The contractor
will be required to provide consent for TIN validation to the government as a part of the CCR registration process.
- If you do not have a D-U-N-S number, you may contact Dun and Bradstreet at 1-866-705-5711 or go online to obtain one.
- Register with CCR by visiting the CCR Web
site.
