This is a Non-Collusion Affidavit form required by Lubbock County, Texas for submission with bid proposals. The affidavit serves as a sworn statement in which the bidding firm certifies that its submission represents a genuine, independent bid made in good faith without collusion, sham bidding, or anti-competitive conduct. The form requires completion and signature by an authorized representative of the firm, followed by notarization before a notary public. The document must be included with all bid submissions as a mandatory component of the proposal package for the 457(b) Deferred Compensation Plan recordkeeping and administration services contract.

The affidavit explicitly prohibits bidders from having directly induced or solicited competing firms to submit sham bids, solicited other entities to refrain from submitting qualifications, or sought unfair advantage over competing firms through collusive practices. Completion of this form is non-negotiable and failure to include it with the submission may result in bid rejection. The form provides blank spaces for the firm name, authorized signatory name, signature, title, and notarization details including the date the oath was administered and the notary public's expiration date.
