This document is a Non-Collusion and Tax Compliance Form from the City of New Bedford, Massachusetts. The form is designed for bid submissions and requires two primary certifications from potential contractors: a Certificate of Non-Collusion and a Tax Compliance Certification. The form requires the bidder to affirm that their bid has been submitted in good faith without collusion or fraud with any other person, entity, or organization, and that they have complied with all Massachusetts tax laws, employee reporting requirements, and child support withholding regulations.

The form is a standard municipal procurement document that seeks to ensure ethical bidding practices and tax compliance from potential contractors. It requires the authorized signatory to certify compliance under penalties of perjury, with signature lines provided for both the non-collusion declaration and tax compliance statement. The form is part of the City of New Bedford's procurement process, designed to maintain transparency, prevent unfair bidding practices, and verify that potential contractors are meeting their legal and financial obligations to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
