   EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 1985, A VENDOR'S FEDERAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (NUMBER ASSIGNED WHEN FILING INCOME TAX DOCUMENTS) OR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER IF VENDOR IS AN INDIVIDUAL, MUST BE ON ALL CONTRACTS, DOCUMENTS AND INVOICES SUBMITTED TO THE COMMONWEALTH.

   Act 266 of 1982 provides for the payment of interest penalties on certain invoices of "qualified small business concerns". The penalties apply to invoices for goods or services when payments are not made by the required payment date or within a 15 day grace period thereafter.
   Act 1984-196 redefined a "qualified small business concern" as any independently owned and operated, for-profit business concern employing 100 or fewer employees. See 4 Pa.Code § 2.32. The business must include the following statement on every invoice submitted to the Commonwealth: "(name of business) is a qualified small business concern as defined in 4 Pa. Code 2.32."
   A business is eligible for payments when the required payment is the latest of:
      The payment date specified in the contract.
      30 days after the later of the receipt of a proper invoice or receipt of goods or services.
      The net payment date stated on the business' invoice.
   A 15-day grace period after the required payment date is provided to the Commonwealth by the Act.

2200-RFI The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) seeks ideas for developing and implementing overall goals for DBE participation by Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs) in Federally-assisted transportation contracting. The Department is mandated to submit a revised DBE program to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) by September 1, 1999. One component of that program must delineate a process or methodology for projecting the amount of overall goals for DBE participation on Federally-assisted contracts based upon demonstrable evidence of the availability of ''ready, willing and able'' DBE firms relative to all businesses ready, willing and able to participate on Federally assisted contracts in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The chosen methodology and goals must reflect the standards set forth in sections 26.45 and section 26.51 of the new regulation which is contained in 49 Code of Federal Regulations Part 26. The entire regulation may be accessed by logging onto web site established for the DBE program by the United States Department of Transportation: http://osdbuweb.dot.gov/programs/dbe/dbe.htm. Fax any ideas to Jocelyn I. Harper at (717) 772-4026 by June 4, 1999.
