About this file
The CERTIFICATION STATEMENTS document is issued by the State of Ohio, specifically relating to preferences and eligibility criteria for state contract opportunities. The document provides a comprehensive framework for bidders to claim preferences under three categories: Domestic Preference (Buy American), Ohio Preference (Buy Ohio), and Veterans Preference (Buy Veteran). Bidders must complete specific sections to demonstrate their eligibility for preference considerations, with detailed requirements around product origin, economic presence in Ohio, and veteran business enterprise status. The document explicitly warns that intentionally submitting false or misleading information may result in immediate disqualification and potential legal action, including possible debarment.
The certification process requires bidders to provide detailed information about product sourcing, including whether products are manufactured in the United States, raised or produced in Ohio, or associated with a veteran-owned business. Bidders must specify the origin of products, confirm component sourcing percentages, validate tax payments and registration with the Ohio Secretary of State, and demonstrate economic presence through employee base criteria. The document references specific Ohio Revised Codes and Administrative Codes governing these preference determinations, providing a structured approach for businesses seeking to qualify for state contract opportunities with potential preferential treatment based on domestic, state, and veteran-owned business criteria.
