Annual Affidavit for Bidders, Offerors and Contractors - Jan 2023.docx

This is an affidavit form issued by the Commonwealth of Kentucky for bidders, offerors, and contractors required under Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) 45A.110 and 45A.115. The affidavit serves as a mandatory attestation that must be completed, notarized, and submitted to the Commonwealth prior to contract award or contract renewal. An authorized representative of the bidder or contractor must execute the document under penalty of perjury, confirming that the contractor has not knowingly violated Kentucky's campaign finance laws and that contract award will not result in any violation of such laws. The affidavit is effective for one year from the date of execution, and the Commonwealth retains the right to request updated affidavits at any time during the contract period.

The form requires completion of contractor identification information, including company name, address, and vendor code if known. The attestation must be notarized before a notary public, with the notary providing their signature, commission expiration date, and the state and county where the oath is administered. The definition of "knowingly" for purposes of this attestation includes any violation of which the bidder or offeror is aware or should reasonably be aware. No specific pricing, set-asides, or funding information is addressed in this document, as it functions solely as a compliance and legal attestation requirement for Kentucky state contracting.
