About this file

This is a Conflict of Interest Affidavit required by the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) for the solicitation of electrical repair services at state highway buildings in Queen Anne's County on Maryland's Eastern Shore. The affidavit, effective July 2024, establishes requirements for Offerors, Contractors, consultants, and subcontractors to disclose any conflicts of interest that could impair their objectivity or provide unfair competitive advantage in performing contract work. Offerors must warrant that no relevant facts or circumstances exist that would create a conflict of interest, except as disclosed in the affidavit itself. The document requires immediate written disclosure to the procurement officer if any actual or potential conflict of interest arises after the affidavit is submitted, including a description of actions the Offeror has taken or proposes to take to avoid, mitigate, or neutralize the conflict.

The affidavit must be submitted with the bid or proposal and is executed under the penalties of perjury by an authorized representative of the Offeror. The referenced procurement opportunity involves hourly labor-based pricing for electrical repair work consisting almost entirely of 120 and 240V single phase work on state highway buildings. Contractors must maintain a stocked van, with parts billed at MSRP pricing plus an approved markup percentage; SHA may alternatively purchase materials for contractor installation. All invoices must be submitted within 30 days of work completion with itemized labor hours and costs rather than lump sum amounts, and payment terms are net 15 days via paper check or available ACH transfer, with credit card payment preferred for invoices under $5,000.
