About this file

This is a Certification of Nonsegregated Facilities attachment (Attachment B) to RFP No. 4616.1 issued by Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) in Maryland for Chief Negotiator and Labor Relations Services. The certification document establishes the contractual requirement that the offeror and any subcontractors must certify compliance with equal opportunity provisions by confirming that no segregated facilities are maintained or provided for employees. The document defines segregated facilities to include rooms, work areas, restrooms, dining areas, time clocks, locker rooms, parking lots, drinking fountains, recreation areas, transportation, and housing that are segregated by explicit directive or in fact segregated on the basis of race, creed, color, or national origin. Offerors must acknowledge that any breach of this certification constitutes a violation of the Equal Opportunity clause in the contract.

The certification requires that offerors obtain identical certifications from proposed subcontractors prior to awarding subcontracts exceeding $10,000 that are not exempt from Equal Opportunity clause provisions. Subcontractors may submit certifications for individual subcontracts or for multiple subcontracts during specified periods such as quarterly, semiannually, or annually. The document includes a mandatory notice to prospective subcontractors regarding this requirement. Failure of an offeror to agree to and submit the Certification of Nonsegregated Facilities renders the offer nonresponsive and subject to rejection. The certification must be initialed and dated by the offeror as evidence of acknowledgment and acceptance of these terms.

The Offeror further agrees that except where there has been obtained identical certifications from proposed subcontractors prior to the award of subcontracts exceeding $10,000 which are not exempt from the provisions of the Equal Opportunity clause that there will be forwarded the following notice to such proposed subcontractors except where the proposed subcontractors have submitted certifications for specific time period:
