8-Procurement Buy America.pdf

This is a Buy America Certification document issued by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) for use on federally funded contracts. The certification requirement applies to all bidders and offerors submitting bids or offers on FHWA-funded contracts, except those subject to a general waiver, and must accompany all bids or offers or the submission will be rejected as nonresponsive. The requirement extends to lower tier subcontractors as well. The document pertains to the City of Arizona's RFB-25-364 project for upgrading pavement markings at four citywide locations, including work on 32nd Street (Avenue D to Avenue C and Avenue B to 4th Avenue), 16th Street (Avenue D to Pacific Avenue), and 3rd Street/Giss Parkway (Avenue B to Main Street).

Bidders must certify compliance with 23 U.S.C. Section 313 and applicable regulations in 23 CFR 635.410 regarding the procurement of steel, iron, and manufactured products. The certification requires the bidder or offeror to submit a signed Certificate of Compliance with their bid or offer, including the company name, title of the signatory, signature, and date. This Buy America requirement ensures that materials used on the federally funded pavement marking project meet domestic content standards established by federal highway law.
