SERVICE VENDORS PROVIDING WORK OFF VILLANOVA PROPERTY

Service Companies providing work off campus provide their services completely off-campus, and either their services do not involve a physical product or the physical product is shipped via a common carrier (e.g. FedEx, USPS, UPS, etc.).

Service Vendors providing work off campus include, but are not limited to, travel agents, consultants, and those providing real estate services.

If University property will be transported or shipped to the Service Vendor, please contact the Insurance and Risk Management Department as there may be additional requirements. 

If insurance is required of the Service Vendor, the Service Vendor is required to provide an insurance certificate evidencing the applicable insurance requirements prior to providing service to the University. If the Service Vendor is a new vendor to the University and insurance is required, the Service Vendor will upload the insurance certificate  into PaymentWorks as part of the onboarding process.

INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

Service Vendors who provide all services off campus and will be making deliveries via a common carrier (e.g. UPS, FedEx, USPS, etc.) are typically not required to provide evidence of insurance. However, if the Service Vendor provides Professional Services to ÄÌÌÇÖ±²¥ off campus (e.g., consultants, massage therapists, real estate services, professional training, etc.), Service Vendor is required to carry the below applicable insurance and provide evidence via a certificate of insurance.  

If University property will be transported or shipped to the Service Vendor off Campus, please contact the Insurance and Risk Management Department as there may be additional insurance requirements.

If the Service Vendor has access to ÄÌÌÇÖ±²¥ Data, the insurance requirements for Vendors with Access to ÄÌÌÇÖ±²¥ Data apply.
