Information for Vendors

VENDOR INFORMATION

New SB 12 Notification for Texas Education Association for Vendors

Please use the link above to access the new SB 12 Notification from TEA. 

Registration does not constitute approval status as a vendor; this only allows vendors to bid/quote on current bid opportunities and be considered for award. A vendor must be awarded on a PFISD bid or quote or a cooperative contract for which PFISD is a member in order to be considered an awarded vendor.

Contractor Employee Background Checks

Senate Bill 9 and Texas Education Code Chapter 22 require entities that contract with school districts to obtain criminal history records on covered employees.  Covered employees with disqualifying criminal histories are prohibited from serving at a school district.  Contractors must certify to the district, using the forms below, that they have complied and must obtain similar certifications from their subcontractors.
 
Covered Employees is defined as:  Employees of a contractor who have or will have continuing duties related to the service to be performed at the District and have or will have direct contact with students.  The District will be the final arbiter of what constitutes continuing duties or direct contact with students.

For your convenience, here are Frequently Asked Questions provided by the Texas Association of School Boards. 

Entities must create an account with DPS to access criminal histories through the Fingerprint-based Applicant Clearinghouse of Texas (FACT).  To set up an account with DPS, contact the crime records service bureau at 512-424-2474.
