About this file
This document is a Commercial Non-Discrimination Certification form for the City of Charlotte, requiring consultants and bidders to certify their commitment to non-discriminatory practices when submitting proposals or bids. The form mandates that consultants consider bids from all qualified potential subcontractors and suppliers without discrimination based on race, color, gender, religion, national origin, ethnicity, age, familial status, sex, veteran status, pregnancy, natural hairstyle, disability, or other protected characteristics.
The certification requires consultants to provide documentation of their non-discriminatory practices, including a list of any discrimination complaints filed against them in the past ten years. Failure to comply with the City's Commercial Non-Discrimination Policy can result in rejection of the bid, termination of contracts, and potential disqualification from participating in City contracts for up to two years. Consultants must agree to provide information about subcontractor and supplier solicitation upon request and consent to arbitration under the City's non-discrimination ordinance.

Project Name:
Consultant’s Name:
The undersigned Consultant hereby certifies and agrees that the following information is correct:
1. In preparing its Bid, the Bidder has considered all bids submitted from qualified, potential subcontractors and suppliers, and has not engaged in or condoned discrimination, as defined in Section 2 below.
2. For purposes of this form, discrimination means discrimination in the solicitation, selection, or treatment of any subcontractor, vendor, supplier or commercial customer on the basis of a person's race, color, gender, religion, national origin, ethnicity, age, familial status, sex (including sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression), veteran status, pregnancy, natural hairstyle or disability, or any otherwise unlawful form of discrimination. Without limiting the foregoing, discrimination also includes retaliating against any person or other entity for reporting any incident of discrimination.
3. Without limiting any other remedies that the City may have for a false certification, it is understood and agreed that, if this certification is false, such false certification will constitute grounds for the City to reject the SOQ submitted with this certification and terminate any contract awarded based on such SOQ. It shall also constitute a violation of the City’s Commercial Non-Discrimination Ordinance and shall subject the Consultant to any remedies allowed thereunder, including possible disqualification from participating in City contracts for up to two years.
4. As a condition of contracting with the City, the Consultant agrees to promptly provide to the City all information and documentation that may be requested by the City from time to time regarding the solicitation and selection of subcontractors and suppliers. Failure to maintain or failure to provide such information shall constitute grounds for the City to reject the SOQ and to terminate any contract awarded on such SOQ. It shall also constitute a violation of the City’s Commercial Non-Discrimination Ordinance and shall subject the Consultant to any remedies that are allowed thereunder.
5. As part of its bid/proposal, the Consultant shall provide to the City a list of all instances within the past ten years where a complaint was filed or pending against the Consultant in a legal or administrative proceeding alleging that the Consultant discriminated against its subcontractor, vendors, suppliers, or commercial customers, and a description of the status or resolution of that complaint, including any remedial action taken.
6. As a condition of submitting a bid/proposal to the City, the Consultant agrees to comply with the City’s Commercial Non-Discrimination Policy as described in Section 2, Article V of the Charlotte City Code, and consents to be bound by the award of any arbitration conducted thereunder.
