Programme and Operations Policies and Procedures

 

1. Prior to creation of the vendor record, verify that there is a bona fide business relationship between UNDP and the vendor?

2. Ensure appropriate segregation for creating and approving vendors as per Internal Control Framework (ICF).

3. Verify in Atlas that new vendor does not already have an existing record (deactivate the duplicate info/data, e.g. bank account details).

4. Ensure that the vendor is not listed in the UN Security Council 1267 committee's list of terrorists and terrorist financiers, and not on the list of UNDP suspended vendors and removed vendors.
