About this file
This is a Certification of Independent Price Determination document applicable to the School Board of Polk County, Florida's solicitation for armored car and secure courier services. The certification requires that all offerors attest that their pricing has been developed independently without consultation, communication, or agreement with competitors regarding prices, submission intent, or pricing methodologies. Offerors must also confirm that their prices will not be disclosed to competitors prior to bid opening or contract award unless required by law, and that no attempts have been made to restrict competition through inducement of other firms to submit or withhold offers.
The certification must be signed by either the person responsible for determining the offered prices or an authorized agent acting on behalf of principals involved in price determination. Each signatory certifies their own compliance with the provisions regarding independent price development and non-participation in anti-competitive practices. If an offeror modifies the disclosure provisions of the certification, they must submit a signed statement with their offer detailing the circumstances of any disclosure. The document serves as a binding commitment to the integrity of the bidding process for this statewide armored transportation contract opportunity.
