About this file
This is a Debarment and Suspension Certification instructions document issued by the City of San Angelo, Texas Purchasing Division for a caustic soda procurement. The document outlines the certification requirements that prospective vendors must provide when submitting bids for the purchase of caustic soda (sodium hydroxide diaphragm) for the Water Production Plant. The plant requires approximately 450 dry tons annually at a 50% solution concentration. By submitting a bid, vendors provide a material representation of fact certifying their eligibility to participate in this covered transaction. Vendors unable to provide the required certification must submit a written explanation for consideration, though failure to furnish either a certification or explanation will result in disqualification from participation.
The certification serves as a prerequisite condition for contract award and execution. Vendors must certify that they and their principals are not debarred, suspended, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from federal participation. Vendors agree to provide immediate written notice to the City if their certification becomes erroneous at any time. Additionally, vendors commit to including the certification clause in all lower-tier covered transactions and agree not to knowingly enter into transactions with debarred, suspended, or ineligible persons unless authorized by the City. The City of San Angelo reserves the right to terminate any transaction for cause if a vendor knowingly submits an erroneous certification. References to Executive Order 12549 and 13 CFR Part 145 govern the definitions and coverage applicable to this procurement.

Debarment and Suspension Certification Instructions
1. By signing and submitting this bid, the prospective vendor is providing the certification set out below.
2. The inability of a person to provide the certification required below will not necessarily result in denial of participation in this covered transaction. The prospective vendor shall submit an explanation of why it cannot provide the certification set out below. The certification or explanation will be considered in connection with the determination whether to enter into this transaction. However, failure of the prospective vendors to furnish a certification or an explanation shall disqualify such person from participation in this transaction.
3. The certification in this clause is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when the City of San Angelo determined to enter into this transaction. If it is later determined that the prospective vendor knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available, the City of San Angelo may terminate this transaction for cause.
4. The prospective vendor shall provide immediate written notice to the City of San Angelo to which this bid is submitted if at any time the prospective vendor learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous because of changed circumstances.
5. The terms "covered transaction," "debarred," "suspended," "ineligible," "lower tier covered transaction," "vendor," "person," "primary covered transaction," "principal," "bid," and "voluntarily excluded," as used in this clause, have the meanings set out in the Definitions and Coverage sections of the rules implementing Executive Order 12549(13 CFR Part 145).
You may contact the City of San Angelo for assistance in obtaining a copy of these regulations.
6. The prospective vendor agrees by submitting this bid that, should the proposed transaction be entered into, it shall not knowingly enter into any lower tier covered transaction with a person who is debarred, suspended, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in this covered transaction, unless authorized by the City of San Angelo.
7. The prospective vendor further agrees by submitting this bid that it will include the clause titled "Certification Regarding Debarment and Suspension" provided by the City of San Angelo, without modification, in all lower tier covered transactions and in all solicitations for lower tier covered transactions.
8. A vendor in a covered transaction may rely upon a certification of a prospective vendor in a lower tier covered transaction that it is not debarred, suspended, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from the covered transaction, unless it knows that the certification is erroneous. A vendor may decide the method and frequency by which it determines the ineligibility of its principals.
Each vendor may, but is not required to, check the Non-procurement List.
9. Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records in order to render in good faith the certification required by this clause. The knowledge and information of a vendor is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings.
10. Except for transactions authorized under paragraph 6 of these instructions, if a vendor in a covered transaction knowingly enters into a lower tier covered transaction with a person who is suspended, debarred, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in this transaction, in addition to other remedies available to the City of San Angelo, the City of San Angelo may terminate this transaction for cause.
