The additional information or clarification must be provided within five (5) business days of request. Failure to respond may result in the bid being deemed non-responsive and may be excluded from further consideration.
I hereby acknowledge that I have been advised of the following:
Any misrepresentation regarding the status of a person or an entity in order to qualify for DBE status may result in conviction for a Class 2 felony, including a penalty for one and a half times the value of the contract.

To the best of my knowledge, information and belief, the facts and representations contained in the aforementioned attached Schedules are true and no material facts have been omitted.
The undersigned will enter into a formal agreement with all listed DBE firms for work as indicated by this Schedule D and accompanying Schedule Cs and will enter into such agreements within (7) seven calendar days after receipt of the contract executed by the Chicago Transit Authority or prior to any work being performed by the DBE subcontractor(s).

If awarded a contract, I agree to promptly and directly provide the CTA on an ongoing basis, current, complete and accurate information regarding (1) work performed on the project; (2) payments; and (3) proposed changes, if any, to the foregoing arrangements.
Further, I shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the performance of this contract. I shall carry out applicable requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 in the award and administration of DOT-assisted contracts. Failure by me to carry out these requirements is a material breach of this contract, which may result in the termination of this contract or such other remedy as the CTA deems appropriate.
The Contractor certifies to the best of its knowledge and belief that it, its principals and any subcontractors used in the performance of this contract, meet the Authority’s requirements and have not violated any City or sister agency policy, codes, state, federal, or local laws, rules or regulations and have not been subject to any debarment, suspension or other disciplinary action by any government agency.
