2-Attachment 7-Participation in Boycott of israel.pdf

This document is a certification attachment related to participation in boycotts of Israel for the Arizona Department of Economic Security (ADES) pest control services procurement. The attachment establishes compliance requirements for vendors responding to the pest control services solicitation posted on March 19, 2025, with proposals due by April 9, 2025. The document functions as a mandatory certification form that bidders must complete and submit as part of their proposal package, ensuring all participating vendors attest to their compliance with state requirements regarding boycott participation.

The certification requirement reflects Arizona state law prohibiting state entities from contracting with businesses that engage in boycotts of Israel. Vendors must certify that they do not participate in boycotts of Israel and agree to comply with this restriction as a condition of contract award. This certification is a material term of the solicitation and failure to provide the required attestation or discovery of non-compliance may result in proposal rejection or contract termination. The requirement applies uniformly to all prospective contractors regardless of company size or set-aside status and must be executed by an authorized representative of the bidding organization.
