Solution Provider Name

This question is asking for the official legal name of your company or organization that is providing the solution being assessed. The Higher Education Community Vendor Assessment Toolkit (HECVAT) begins with basic identifying information to establish who is being evaluated. Why it's asked: This information serves as a formal identifier for the assessment and helps the institution track which vendor is being evaluated. It's used for record-keeping, contract management, and to ensure the assessment is properly associated with the correct vendor in their systems. How to answer: Provide your company's full legal name as it would appear on contracts and legal documents. Do not use abbreviations unless they are part of your legal name. If your company operates under a DBA (Doing Business As) name that differs from your legal entity name, you may want to include both, with the legal name first followed by the DBA in parentheses. This question seems simple but is important for documentation purposes and ensuring the assessment is properly attributed.
