Clicking submit will display the Declaration screen. Enter your first and last name in the box provided, then tick the box to confirm the accuracy of the information you have provided. The ‘Submit’ button will then activate, click this to continue.
On submitting your Stage 1 questions, the system will perform a series of automated checks to determine if you need to answer the Stage 2 questionnaire and/or pay an administration fee, depending on the size of your organisation.
One of three outcomes will now take place:
You do not need to answer the Stage 2 questionnaire – in this case your Stage 1 questionnaire will be submitted directly to our Validations team. Please refer to the Validations section within the Help Centre for more information.
You need to answer further questions but as a smaller supplier are exempt from the administration fee – in this case the system will take you straight to additional question sections in Stage 2. Please refer to the section entitled ‘Answering Stage 2 Questions’.
You need to answer further questions and, as a larger supplier, the administration fee is applicable – in this case, please refer to the Payment section.
