This is a Certification Regarding Debarment, Suspension, Ineligibility and Voluntary Exclusion form for lower tier covered transactions required for the IDEA PRT C Developmental Evaluation Tool contract opportunity in South Carolina. The certification document serves as a compliance requirement for prospective lower tier participants in accordance with 45 CFR Part 76. By submitting the signed certification, lower tier participants attest that they and their principals are not currently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in federal transactions by any federal department or agency. If a prospective lower tier participant cannot certify compliance with these standards, they are required to attach an explanation to their proposal.

The prospective lower tier participant agrees to include this certification clause without modification in all lower tier covered transactions and solicitations for lower tier covered transactions. This certification requirement establishes a foundational compliance measure for vendors and subcontractors participating in the South Carolina state contract opportunity, ensuring that all participants meet federal eligibility standards for participation in federally-funded or federally-regulated transactions.
