Is Vendor Hold status verification required?
A. The University must verify on all orders over $500 whether or not a vendor is on hold with the State Comptroller’s office to be able to purchase from them. Texas Government Code Section 2107.008 prohibits the Comptroller from issuing a payment to a vendor who is indebted to the State of Texas.
