About this file

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This is a Certificate of Authority form issued by the Connecticut Department of Administrative Services (DAS) for use in state and local construction contract bidding processes. The Certificate of Authority serves as a formal authorization document whereby an entity's governing body certifies that a designated individual has been empowered to execute and deliver contracts, amendments, and related documents required by the Governor, Connecticut DAS, the Connecticut State Properties Review Board, and the Office of the Attorney General. The form requires completion by a signatory who is separate from the individual authorized to sign contract documents (with limited exceptions for sole managing members of LLCs or sole officers of corporations), and must be dated on or before the bid proposal or contract execution date. Bidders must upload a completed and signed PDF version of the Certificate of Authority through the CTsource online system.

The Certificate of Authority form includes detailed instructions for completion applicable to both bid proposals and subsequent contract execution. Key information to be entered includes the name and title of the certifying officer, the legal entity name as registered with the Secretary of State, the state of registration, the date of the governing body's resolution authorizing the signatory (which must precede the bid or contract signature date), and the witness date of the Certificate itself (which must not precede the bid or contract signature date). The form is part of the standard documentation required for Connecticut construction service contracts and applies to all bidders participating in DAS solicitations, including those for projects such as the structural and seismic review services requested under solicitation BI-2B-455 for 395 West Main Street in Waterbury.
