Attachment_3_Boycott_of_Israel.pdf

This file is a Boycott of Israel attestation document related to a pest control services procurement for the Arizona State Prison Complex (ASPC) in Winslow, operated by the State of Arizona. The document establishes compliance requirements for vendors bidding on pest control services for the ASPC-Winslow facility and its Apache Unit. As a condition of contract award, bidders must certify their compliance with Arizona's boycott of Israel provisions, which prohibit the state from contracting with entities that boycott, divest from, or sanction Israel. The attestation requires vendors to affirm that they do not engage in such activities and to acknowledge their understanding of the contractual implications of non-compliance. This certification must be completed and submitted as part of the overall bid package by the August 11, 2025 proposal deadline established for the pest control services solicitation.

The boycott attestation serves as a mandatory eligibility requirement rather than a pricing or set-aside provision. Vendors must complete the required certification form to be considered for award, regardless of their bid price or small business status. Non-compliance with or refusal to sign the attestation results in bid rejection and disqualification from the procurement process. This requirement reflects Arizona state law regarding public contracting and applies uniformly to all bidders, including minority-owned enterprises, local vendors, and established pest control service providers. The attestation does not modify the technical evaluation criteria, pricing analysis, or other standard procurement evaluation factors for the pest control contract.
