About this file

This is a Domestic Workforce Utilization Certification form for multiple award contracts issued by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's Department of General Services. The certification applies to the east dirt road shaping and dust palliative services contract in eastern Susquehanna County, which will be performed in accordance with Chapter 6.3 of PennDOT's Maintenance Manual (Publication 23) and the attached Statement of Work. This is a Small Business Reserve Solicitation, requiring vendors to be listed as Certified Small Businesses on the Department of General Services Supplier search tool by the bid close date. The certification will be evaluated as part of the best value selection process for contract award, with maximum consideration given to suppliers committing to perform contracted direct labor exclusively within the United States or within countries that are parties to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement.

Contractors must complete and sign the certification form to receive consideration for the domestic workforce utilization criterion. Suppliers may certify that all direct labor will be performed within approved geographic boundaries, or specify a percentage of direct labor to be performed domestically with identification of any work performed outside the United States and outside WTO Government Procurement Agreement countries. Failure to complete and sign the certification results in no consideration for this evaluation criterion. The certification becomes a contractual obligation upon contract execution, and any misstatement is treated as fraudulent concealment punishable under Section 4904 of the Pennsylvania Crimes Code, Title 18.

DOMESTIC WORKFORCE UTILIZATION CERTIFICATION FOR MULTIPLE AWARD

CONTRACTS

To the extent permitted by the laws and treaties of the United States, this certification will be used by the Agency in making a best value selection for each particular assignment. Each quote will be evaluated for its commitment to use the domestic workforce in the fulfillment of the contract. Maximum consideration will be given to those suppliers who will perform the contracted direct labor exclusively within the geographical boundaries of the United States or within the geographical boundaries of a country that is a party to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement. Those who propose to perform a portion of the direct labor outside of the United States and not within the geographical boundaries of a party to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement will receive a correspondingly smaller score for this criterion. In order to be eligible for any consideration for this criterion, suppliers must complete and sign the following certification. This certification will be included as a contractual obligation when the contract is executed. Failure to complete and sign this certification will result in no consideration being given to the supplier for this criterion.
