About this file

This document is a Criminal History Screening Practices Certification form for Broward County, Florida, specifically related to a solicitation for exterior painting of the Downtown Mass Transit Terminal Building. The contract requires vendors seeking contracts of $100,000 or more to implement policies that delay criminal history inquiries until an applicant is a finalist and interviewed, with the specific project involving exterior painting services at the BCT Downtown Mass Transit Terminal Building located at 101 NW 1st Avenue, Fort Lauderdale. The solicitation involves fixed-contract work requiring labor, supervision, equipment, tools, supplies, surface/wall repair, and preparation for painting, with vendors required to submit responses electronically through BPRO by a specified closing date.

The solicitation includes several key requirements, including compliance with FTA regulations, county licensing requirements, Davis Bacon Prevailing Wage Rates, and electronic submission protocols. While no specific budget is mentioned, the form indicates that contracts at or above $100,000 trigger the criminal history screening certification requirement. Vendors must submit questions through BPRO by a designated date, with the County responding in the platform's Messages section. The solicitation does not specify a precise award date or contract term, but emphasizes strict submission guidelines and the potential for disqualification if requirements are not met.

Top of Form The completed form should be returned with the Vendor’s submittal. If not provided with the submittal, Vendor must submit the form within three business days after County’s request. Vendor may be deemed nonresponsive for failure to fully comply within the stated timeframe.

Section 26-125(d) of the Broward County Code of Ordinances (“Criminal History Screening Practices”) requires that a Vendor seeking a contract in the amount of $100,000 or more with Broward County shall certify:

A. Vendor has implemented, or will implement upon award of the contract, policies, practices, and procedures regarding inquiry into the criminal history of an applicant for employment, including a criminal history background check of any such person, that preclude inquiry into an applicant's criminal history until the applicant is selected as a finalist and interviewed for the position.

B. This requirement shall apply only to positions located within the United States that will foreseeably perform work under a contract with Broward County.

C. The failure of Vendor to comply with Section 26-125(d) at any time during the contract term shall constitute a material breach of the contract, entitling Broward County to pursue any remedy permitted under the contract and any other remedy provided under applicable law.

D. If Vendor fails to comply with Section 26-125(d) at any time during the contract term, Broward County may, in addition to all other available remedies, terminate the contract and Vendor may be subject to debarment or suspension proceedings consistent with the procedures in Chapter 21 of the Broward County Administrative Code.
