CERTIFICATE OF NON-COLLUSION~2.docx

The document is a Certificate of Non-Collusion, a standard legal form used to ensure ethical bidding practices in government procurement processes. The certification requires the bidder to affirm that their proposal has been submitted in good faith, without any collusion or fraudulent activities with other parties. The document provides space for the signature of the individual submitting the bid and the name of their business.

The certificate serves as a legal declaration that prevents potential bid rigging or unfair competitive practices by requiring the bidder to certify under penalties of perjury that their submission is genuine and independent. The definition of "person" is broadly defined to include natural persons, businesses, partnerships, corporations, unions, committees, clubs, and other organizational entities, which helps prevent collusive behavior across various types of organizational structures.
