This notice concerns invoice processing procedures for agencies receiving financial assistance from a Department. The process involves inspection or verification and approval of deliverables within 20 days of invoice receipt. Following this, the Department has 20 days to send a payment request to the Department of Financial Services. If payment is delayed beyond 40 days, an interest penalty may apply. Invoices returned due to preparation errors will cause payment delays. A Vendor Ombudsman is available within the Department of Financial Services to assist agencies experiencing payment issues. This item is currently under review as part of a City Commission meeting agenda. The scope of work involves administrative processes related to financial transactions and vendor payments. Businesses that supply goods or services to government agencies should be aware of these payment timelines and procedures. Understanding these requirements early can help ensure smooth financial operations.
