About this file
The document is a Vendor Size Self-Certification form issued by Colorado State University System, designed to help businesses self-identify their size classification and commodity categories for potential contracting opportunities. The form allows vendors to certify their business type (such as individual/sole proprietor, corporation, partnership) and provides options to classify as various small business types including woman-owned, veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, and other designated categories. Businesses can indicate their primary commodity areas ranging from advertising and marketing services to IT, manufacturing, and scientific research.
The form includes detailed definitions of small business classifications, explaining criteria such as ownership percentages, socioeconomic disadvantage, and specific requirements for different business designations. It references the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) for determining business size standards, which can vary by industry based on employee numbers or gross annual sales. The document also includes a legal notice warning that misrepresenting business size or socioeconomic status can result in fines, imprisonment, and ineligibility for government program participation. Businesses are encouraged to provide their DUNS number and can contact the Small Business Administration for further guidance on classification and legal definitions.
