Additionally, contractors must certify that their company has not been found in default or had a contract terminated for cause within the last 36 months, and has not received any willful or repeated OSHA safety citations with final orders issued within the last 36 months. Failure to meet any qualification requirement or provide complete and accurate information will result in rejection of the solicitation response. All unit pricing must include labor, materials, tools, transportation, equipment, sales tax, use tax, and all other costs necessary for project completion.
