About this file

This is a Conflict of Interest Information and Affidavit document issued by Prince George's Community College (PGCC) in Maryland for RFP 027-004 concerning Aerospace and Aviation Workforce Training Programs - Feasibility Study. The document establishes conflict of interest requirements and procedures applicable to bidders, offerors, contractors, consultants, and subcontractors at any tier who assist the College in the formation, evaluation, selection, award, or execution of contracts. A conflict of interest is defined as a condition where a person, due to other activities or relationships, is unable or potentially unable to render impartial assistance or advice to the College, or where objectivity in performing contract work is or might be impaired, or where a person has an unfair competitive advantage. The Procurement Officer may reject bids or offers prior to award if facts or circumstances giving rise to an actual or potential conflict of interest are determined to exist, and may terminate contracts after award if deemed necessary to avoid such conflicts.

Bidders and offerors responding to this solicitation are required to submit a sworn Conflict of Interest Affidavit and Disclosure form with their bid or offer and at other times as required by the Procurement Officer. The affidavit requires bidders to warrant that no relevant facts or circumstances giving rise to a conflict of interest exist, except as explicitly disclosed in writing with detailed explanation. Bidders must also agree to immediately disclose in writing to the Procurement Officer any actual or potential conflicts that arise after the affidavit date, including a description of actions taken or proposed to avoid, mitigate, or neutralize the conflict. Failure to disclose a known or reasonably knowable conflict prior to or after award may result in contract termination for default, debarment proceedings, or other legal remedies. The College retains the authority to waive conflicts of interest if the Procurement Officer, with appropriate College head approval, determines such waiver is in the College's best interest, provided the determination documents the reasons and any controls to address the conflict.

ATTACHMENT C3

CONFLICT OF INTEREST INFORMATION

A. Each solicitation that will result in the selection of a Contractor who will assist a unit in the formation, evaluation, selection, award, or execution of a College contract shall provide notice of the requirement of this regulation.

B. "Conflict of interest" means that, because of other activities or relationships with other persons, a person is unable or potentially unable to render impartial assistance or advice to the College, or the person's objectivity in performing the contract work is or might be otherwise impaired, or a person has an unfair competitive advantage.

C. "Person" includes a bidder, offeror, Contractor, consultant or subcontractor or subconsultant at any tier, and also includes an employee or agent of any of them if the employee or agent has or will have the authority to control or supervise all or a portion of the work for which a bid or offer is made.

D. If the Procurement Officer makes a determination prior to award that facts or circumstances exist giving rise or which could in the future give rise to a conflict in interest, the procurement officer may reject a bid or offer.

E. After award the College may terminate the contract, in whole or in part, if it deems such termination necessary to avoid an actual or potential conflict of interest. If the Contractor knew or reasonably could have been expected to know of an actual or potential conflict of interest prior to or after award and did not disclose it or misrepresented relevant information to the Procurement Officer, the College may terminate the contract for default, institute proceedings to debar the Contractor from further College contracts, or pursue such other remedies as may be permitted by law or the contract.

F. A conflict of interest may be waived if the Procurement Officer, with approval of the appropriate College head or designee, determines that waiver is in the best interest of the College. The determination shall state the reasons for the waiver and any controls that avoid, mitigate, or neutralize the conflict of interest.

G. Each bidder or offeror responding to a solicitation that will result in the selection of a Contractor who will assist a unit in the formation, evaluation, selection, award, or execution of another College contract shall provide the affidavit and disclosures set forth in Subsection H of this regulation to the Procurement Officer with the bid or offer and such other times as may be required by the Procurement Officer.

H. The affidavits and disclosures required by Subsection G of this regulation shall be in substantially the same form as follows:
