About this file
This is an Anti-Lobbying Certification Form required by the Byrd Anti-Lobbying Amendment for the Milk and Dairy Request for Proposal (RFP 26C-0320) issued by Mohave Educational Services Cooperative, Inc., an Arizona-based consortium. The solicitation seeks milk and dairy products to serve approximately 480 public agencies statewide, including school districts, cities, counties, state agencies, community colleges, universities, and qualifying nonprofits. Products requested include half-pint cartons, gallons, half-gallons, cream products, cottage cheese, protein beverages, frozen treats, and ice cream sandwiches, with historical usage data ranging from single units to over 19 million units for high-volume items. A pre-proposal conference is scheduled for February 20, 2026, with a deadline for submitting questions on March 13, 2026, and proposals due electronically via OpenGov Procurement by March 20, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. Arizona time. The contract will be awarded for an initial one-year term with four potential one-year extension options, allowing for up to five years of contract duration contingent upon satisfactory performance and continued competitive pricing.
The Anti-Lobbying Certification Form certifies that no Federal appropriated funds have been paid or will be paid to influence any officer or employee of a Federal agency, Member of Congress, or Congressional employee in connection with the contract award. Offerors must sign and submit this certification as a prerequisite for contract entry, acknowledging that failure to comply with anti-lobbying provisions subjects violators to civil penalties between $10,000 and $100,000 for each violation. All subcontractors receiving awards exceeding $100,000 must also provide similar certifications and disclosures. The form requires disclosure of any non-Federal funds used for lobbying activities on OMB Form LLL and mandates that anti-lobbying language be included in all subcontract awards at all tiers.
