This is a Bidder Declaration form from the State of California, Department of General Services Procurement Division, used for state and local contract opportunities. The form requires bidders to declare whether they meet specific criteria related to California certification status, subcontractor usage, and product delivery requirements. Bidders must identify themselves and provide authorization from an authorized representative, and they must declare whether they are a California-certified Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE), identify current certifications held, and confirm whether they will subcontract elements of the work or deliver products sourced from the state. The form includes checkboxes for bidders to indicate compliance with various procurement requirements and mandates specific information regarding subcontractors and their certifications for contract performance.

The declaration requires bidders to certify their status under California's DVBE program and disclose any subcontracting arrangements, including subcontractor certifications and contact information. Bidders must also verify their ability to provide products and services originating in California when applicable. The form mandates that bidders maintain documented proof of all certifications and subcontractor qualifications throughout contract performance. For bidders unable to meet California certification requirements, the form provides alternative compliance pathways, including the option to proceed with non-certified subcontractors if specific conditions are met, though such arrangements require prior written approval and documentation of good-faith efforts to locate certified vendors and subcontractors.
