The system is part of NSHE's overall procurement outreach and processing effort. It allows suppliers to register and manage business information with NSHE using unique login credentials. The information recorded for each supplier is comprehensive and allows the NSHE to better match business opportunities with suppliers capable of competing for a specific good or service.
The purpose of this system is not only to allow users to registers as a potential supplier, but to create a self service depot where business information, certifications, payment method, and bid notices can be managed. This system allows Purchasing staff to use the most current information to send email notices of university solicitation opportunities.
IMPORTANT: Users may log into the Online Self Service Supplier Registration system with a valid username and password only after completing Steps 1 and 2 of the registration process. Inactivated accounts older than ten (10) business days will be deleted.
Suppliers who have already submitted their information into the system are encouraged to login regularly to verify and manage their information.
Once a supplier is fully registered, any individual employees of that supplier who have registered as a user for the business may change information pertaining to the supplier's account. Additionally, any individual employee of the supplier who has registered as a user may change information pertaining to their own user account (i.e. first name, last name, etc).
Any information changed that is deemed critical will first be reviewed by the NSHE Purchasing staff before a permanent change is allowed to take effect.
Users must register as a supplier with NSHE's Online Self Service Supplier Registration system in order to receive email notification of new, advertised solicitations. Announcements are sent out based on the commodities selected by the Supplier at the time of registration.
By following the directions for How do I request email notifications for new advertised soliciations?, you will also receive addenda notices for any solicitation which you have already been notified for. No additional step is necessary to request addenda notices.
If your password is not working, there is a "Forgot your Password?" feature on the Login page. Please use this to have your password reset and sent to you via email.
If you have problems accessing your account after attempting to recover your password, please contact support via email at nshe_supplier_registration@nshe.nevada.edu.
A spend category is a classification system that provides your business the ability to select from a listing the goods and/or services your business provides. During the registration process, you may choose the spend categories you would like associated with your business.
Yes.
The first person registering in the system will not only be registering themselves as a user, but will also be registering the business they represent.
We do not want multiple entries in the system for the same business. When attempting to register for the first time, please use the search feature to see if your business has already been registered. If it has been, you may choose to add your user profile to the existing business entry by selecting the Business Name from the search results list. You will then be added as a user within the existing supplier profile once another registered user from your business has granted you access.

According to Wikipedia:
The phrase doing business as ... is a legal term used in the United States, meaning that the trade name, or fictitious business name, under which the business or operation is conducted and presented to the world is not the legal name of the legal person (or persons) who actually own it and are responsible for it ... The desired name might not have been registrable, or the business might be owned by another company, franchisee, or a sole proprietorship, resulting in all legally binding transactions taking place on behalf of the trading as name.

It is required by Nevada Revised Statutes that:
Every person doing business in this state under an assumed or fictitious name that is in any way different from the legal name of each person who owns an interest in the business must file with the county clerk of each county in which the business is being conducted a certificate containing the information required by NRS 602.020
