About this file

This is a Commercially Useful Function (CUF) Certification Form issued by the State of California Department of Veterans Affairs for solicitation 25FS0030, which concerns Commercial Laundry Equipment Maintenance and Repair Services at the Veterans Home of California at Fresno. The form must be completed by every certified Small Business (SB), Micro Business (MB), and Disadvantaged Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) that will perform any element of the work. All certified firms must demonstrate that they meet commercially useful function requirements as defined under Government Code Section 14837(d)(4) for SBs and Military and Veterans Code Section 999(b)(5)(B) for DVBEs.

The certification requires contractors to answer five critical questions regarding their role in contract execution and work performance. Contractors must confirm they will be responsible for executing a distinct element of work, will perform or supervise the work themselves, will perform work normal to their business operations, will not subcontract work beyond normal industry practices, and will not serve merely as a pass-through entity to create an appearance of SB or DVBE participation. A negative response to questions one through three or an affirmative response to question four will result in the quote being deemed non-responsive and disqualified. Contractors must provide a written statement detailing their role, services, and goods, and an authorized representative must sign the form under penalty of perjury attesting to the truthfulness and accuracy of all information provided.
