Prospective bidders must certify their compliance status by initialing one of three options: confirming no business operations outside the United States in the previous three years, demonstrating written permission from the Department of General Services as a scrutinized company, or certifying that despite international business activities, they do not meet the definition of a scrutinized company under PCC section 10476.
