2-VOSB Form for IFB and RFP.pdf

This is a Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) certification form for use in sealed bid (IFB) and request for proposal (RFP) processes with the Allegheny County Parks department in Pennsylvania. The form serves as a declaration and certification mechanism for vendors to establish their eligibility and status as veteran-owned small businesses when responding to county procurement opportunities. The document provides standardized language and certification statements that vendors must complete and submit as part of their proposal packages for consideration in competitive procurement processes. The form includes sections for vendor identification, ownership verification, and attestation of veteran status and small business classification in accordance with applicable Pennsylvania state and local procurement regulations.

The VOSB form establishes set-aside preferences and contractor qualifications for participation in Allegheny County procurement activities. Veteran-owned small business certifications provide vendors meeting these criteria with competitive advantages in the evaluation process for contracts such as RFP 9457 for Parks & Recreation Application System Evaluation. The form requires detailed ownership information and supporting documentation to verify that the business is at least 51 percent owned and controlled by one or more veterans, meeting both state and federal small business size standards. Completion and submission of this certification form is mandatory for vendors seeking consideration under VOSB procurement set-asides and preferences within Allegheny County government contracting processes.
