NETVENDOR

The Roman Catholic Bishop of Orange (RCBO) requires all on-site vendors, including general contractors, to enroll in NetVendor, the diocesan compliance management program. This is to be completed before a contract is fully executed. The process of approval through NetVendor includes review of required and submitted insurance documents, W-9 forms, any applicable licenses, and a criminal background check of the company’s principals. Vendors are required to maintain an approved status with NetVendor for the duration of the contract. Failure to do so may delay payment of invoices submitted for the work.
