About this file

This is a Conflict of Interest Affidavit form required for submission with bid proposals to the State of Maryland, specifically for the QACARP29SB Carpentry Services contract with the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) Centreville facility. The affidavit requires offerors, contractors, consultants, subcontractors, and their employees or agents with authority over contract work to disclose any facts or circumstances that could create conflicts of interest, defined as situations where a person is unable to render impartial assistance, their objectivity may be impaired, or they possess an unfair competitive advantage. Offerors must warrant that no relevant conflicts of interest exist except as explicitly disclosed in the form, and they must immediately notify the procurement officer in writing if any actual or potential conflicts arise after the affidavit is signed.

The affidavit requires the authorized representative to execute the document under penalty of perjury, affirming that all disclosed information is true and correct to the best of their knowledge. The form references COMAR 21.05.08.08 and COMAR 21.01.02.01B(64) as regulatory guidance and must be submitted with all bid or proposal submissions. If a conflict of interest emerges after contract award and performance has begun, the contractor must continue performance until receiving contrary instructions from the procurement officer. The form includes designated spaces for disclosure of any potential conflicts and for the contractor's proposed mitigation or neutralization actions.
