Disclosure of Employee Relationship with Potential or Existing University of Iowa Vendor

The University of Iowa has established procedures in accordance with the Board of Regents and Iowa Code policies on conflict of interest.  Part of our procedure includes the disclosure of relationships between University of Iowa employees and existing or potential vendors. 

The “Disclosure of Employee Relationship with Potential or Existing University of Iowa Vendor” form will be used whenever bids are solicited.  The Purchasing Agent responsible for each bid will supply this form and request that all employees involved in the decision making for that specific bid complete a form. 

The University of Iowa employees involved in the bid decision making are asked to disclose whether they or their spouse/partner/minor child are employed by any of the bid vendors, and whether they have a financial or personal relationship with the bid vendors or the vendors’ principles or employees. 

If you have any questions regarding this form, contact Jennifer Jark, Purchasing, at 335-0668 or

jennifer-jark@uiowa.edu.   For more information on the conflict of interest policy, http://www.uiowa.edu/~purchase/purchase/For%20Faculty_Staff/Conflict.htm
