About this file

This is a Criminal History Screening Practices Certification form required by Broward County, Florida for vendors seeking contracts valued at $100,000 or more. The certification implements Section 26-125(d) of the Broward County Code of Ordinances and applies to the Altec Aerial Device and Crane Parts and Repair Services contract. The scope of work encompasses furnishing labor, materials, equipment, and services for providing Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts, diagnostics, inspection, testing, repair, structural evaluation, and preventative maintenance services for County-owned Altec aerial devices, cranes, and lifts serving the Fleet Services Division and other Broward County agencies. Vendors must submit responses electronically through BPRO by the specified closing date and time and receive a submission receipt to ensure timely consideration.

Vendors are required to certify compliance with criminal history screening practices by implementing policies that preclude inquiry into an applicant's criminal history until after the applicant is selected as a finalist and interviewed for the position. This requirement applies exclusively to positions located within the United States that will foreseeably perform work under the Broward County contract. Vendors may be exempt if required by applicable federal, state, or local law to conduct criminal history background checks at times or in manners otherwise prohibited by this ordinance, or if the vendor is a governmental agency. Non-compliance constitutes a material breach of contract and may result in contract termination, debarment, or suspension proceedings. Vendors must complete and submit the certification form with their initial submittal or within three business days of County request, with failure to comply rendering the vendor nonresponsive.
