About this file
The document is a Commercially Useful Function (CUF) Certification Form issued by the State of California Department of Veterans Affairs for Solicitation Number 25CRF009. This form is designed for certified Small Businesses (SB), Micro Businesses (MB), and Disabled Veteran Business Enterprises (DVBE) who will perform work in a state contract, requiring them to demonstrate their substantive role in contract execution. The form requires businesses to confirm they will be responsible for a distinct element of work, actually perform or manage the contract obligations, and ensure the work is normal to their business functions.
The certification form is structured to prevent pass-through participation or token involvement, with specific criteria that could disqualify a bidder if they cannot demonstrate a genuine commercial useful function. Businesses must answer a series of yes/no questions that assess their intended contract role, with responses of "No" in questions 1-3 or "Yes" in question 4 potentially rendering their quote non-responsive. The form includes a section for a written statement detailing the company's specific role, services, and goods, and requires an authorized signature certifying the truthfulness of the provided information under penalty of perjury.
