About this file

This is a CORI Compliance Certification form (CM-15A) issued by the City of Boston in May 2025, applicable to the Boston Public Schools (BPS) Safety Exterior Signage contract opportunity in Massachusetts. The certification addresses compliance with City of Boston Code, Chapter 4, Section 7, which establishes fair policies for screening individuals with criminal backgrounds through the CORI (Criminal Offender Record Information) system. Vendors must certify their CORI policies by selecting one of three options: confirming they perform no CORI checks on any applicant, affirming their policy conforms to the standards outlined in Form CM-15B, or disclosing that their policy does not conform to CM-15B standards. The BPS contract seeks to establish one agreement with the lowest eligible and responsible bidder to fabricate, deliver, install, remove, and repair exterior signage for BPS facilities, with a contract amount not to exceed $90,000 for the contract period.

Vendors who select the third option indicating non-conformity with CM-15B standards will not be permitted to enter into contracts with the City absent a waiver granted by the awarding authority under exigent circumstances on a contract-by-contract basis. Any waiver requires completion of Form CM-15C by the awarding authority. The certification must be executed under penalties of perjury by an authorized representative of the vendor's business. The procurement is subject to applicable Massachusetts laws, including M.G.L. Chapter 149, as amended, and the City of Boston is not obligated to use the full contract amount, retaining the right to use any portion based on operational needs.
