In accordance with the Public Health Trust (PHT)/Jackson Health System's procurement regulations, as revised on April 4, 2006, all vendors/manufactures are required on an annual basis to register with the Trust by completing a business registration application before receiving an award. This centralized process enables you to submit a single application to establish a contract with the PHT requesting goods and services.

This application must also include:

• the required Miami-Dade County affidavits
• an attached copy of the firm's Dade County Business Occupational license (if the firm is domiciled in Miami-Dade County)
• a copy of the State Corporate Certificate (if incorporated).

Award categories are as follows:

• requests for proposals (RFPs)
• bids
• bid waivers
• or any purchases falling under the amount required for bidding.

A continued compliance form must be submitted with an RFP, bid, bid waiver or any purchase falling under the amount required for bidding if the registration application has been submitted within the last twelve (12) months.

Remit all documents to the following address:

Jackson Health System
Procurement Management Department
Division of Strategic Sourcing
ATTN: Jennifer Jagbir, Vendor Coordinator
Holtz Center, B069
1611 N.W. 12th Avenue
Miami, Florida 33136

The business entity registration application information may be updated at any time by notifying the PHT at the above noted address, in writing, on company letterhead and signed by an authorized officer of the business entity.

Registration documents that are received incomplete must have the missing information submitted before the firm can be placed in the active list of registered business entities with the PHT. Therefore, to avoid unnecessary interruptions, it is important to follow the instructions and review the completed package before submitting it to the PHT. Each document must be signed in the appropriate places and notarized as required. 

If you need any help or have any questions regarding purchasing-related matters, please contact the vendor coordinator at (305) 585-5815.
