About this file
This is a CORI Compliance Certification form (CM-15A) issued by the City of Boston in May 2025, required for vendors entering into contracts with the municipality. The certification ensures that vendors' policies regarding Criminal Offender Record Information (CORI) screening comply with City of Boston Code, Chapter 4, Section 7. Vendors must affirm compliance by selecting one of three options: certifying they perform no CORI checks on applicants, certifying their CORI policy conforms to standards set forth in Form CM-15B, or disclosing that their policy does not conform to those standards and providing their written CORI policy. The form requires the signature of an authorized representative of the vendor's business and has been approved as to form by Corporation Counsel.
Vendors who select the third option—indicating non-conformity with the City's CORI standards—will not be permitted to enter into contracts with the City of Boston unless the awarding authority grants a waiver under exigent circumstances on a contract-by-contract basis. Any waiver approval requires completion of Form CM-15C by the awarding authority and attachment to this certification. All vendors must select one compliance option and certify under penalties of perjury that they are in compliance with the City of Boston Code requirements.
