The certification must be executed by an authorized official of the contractor or grantee and submitted in connection with contract opportunities such as the PennDOT Sign Shop-Sign Stiffeners solicitation.

Additionally, falsification of the certification is subject to penalties under 18 Pa. C.S. § 4904 for unsworn falsification to authorities. Contractors must report any changes in their compliance status to the purchasing agency immediately upon discovery. The form was published on February 4, 2022, and applies to all state and local contract opportunities issued by Pennsylvania agencies.
