About this file

This document is a Certification Statements form for bidders seeking preference in state procurement processes, specifically for the state of Ohio. The form provides a structured method for bidders to claim preferences under three categories: Domestic Source (Buy American), Ohio Preference (Buy Ohio), and Veterans Preference (Buy Veteran). Bidders must complete this form to potentially receive preference points or considerations during the procurement evaluation process, with clear warnings that intentionally submitting false information can result in disqualification and potential legal action.

The certification form requires detailed disclosures about product origins, manufacturing locations, state tax compliance, business registration, employee base, and veteran-friendly business status. Specifically, bidders must indicate whether their products are manufactured in the United States, produced in Ohio, or if they qualify as a border state vendor. For Ohio preference, businesses must demonstrate economic presence through criteria like tax payments, Secretary of State registration, and employee concentration in Ohio or border states. The form also includes a section for veterans-owned businesses to certify their status under Administrative Code 123:5-1-01(KK).
