About this file
This document is a Request for Proposal (RFP) Solicitation No. BPM006379 from the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ), specifically an attachment focused on compliance with Arizona's anti-boycott of Israel legislation. The solicitation involves HDR Engineering, Inc., a professional engineering firm located in Phoenix, Arizona, and requires vendors to certify their stance on business relations with Israel as part of the procurement process.
The solicitation appears to be for Capacity Development and Technical Assistance services targeting small public drinking water systems, with specific legal requirements surrounding vendor participation. The document outlines exemption criteria for contracts under $100,000, those involving sole proprietorships, companies with fewer than 10 employees, or non-profit organizations. HDR Engineering has certified that they do not participate in, and agrees not to participate in, a boycott of Israel during the contract term, which is a mandatory compliance component for public entity contracts in Arizona.
