BUY AMERICA CERTIFICATION-EXHIBIT G.pdf

This is a Buy America Certification form required for proposal submission to MassDOT Rail and Transit Division for the Transit-ADA Compliant Van Procurement in Massachusetts. The form serves as a self-certification document where proposers must declare either their compliance or non-compliance with federal Buy America requirements under 49 U.S.C. 5323(j)(2)(C) and 49 CFR Part 661. Proposers are required to select one of two certification options: Section A for those certifying compliance with Buy America requirements, or Section B for those certifying non-compliance but potentially qualifying for an exemption under 49 U.S.C. 5323(j)(2)(B) or (j)(2)(D). Each certification option requires the proposer to provide a signature, date, company name, and title of the authorized representative.

The Buy America certification must be included with the proposal application and represents a mandatory compliance submission element for this van procurement opportunity. This certification requirement ensures that proposed vehicles and components meet domestic content standards applicable to federally-funded transit vehicle procurement projects. Proposers unable to meet domestic content requirements must document their non-compliance status and identify potential exemption qualifications, allowing the agency to evaluate proposals based on applicable regulatory provisions.
