About this file
The document is a Declaration of Non-Collusion form for the Toledo Area Regional Transit Authority (TARTA), located in Toledo, Ohio. The form is a standard procurement document that requires bidders to certify that their bid pricing has been developed independently, without collusion, consultation, or communication with competitors, and that no attempts have been made to restrict competitive bidding.
The declaration requires bidders to confirm that their proposed prices have been arrived at independently, have not been knowingly disclosed to other bidders or competitors prior to bid opening, and that no agreements have been made to induce or prevent other parties from submitting competitive bids. The document stipulates that failure to comply with these provisions may result in the bid being rejected or no award being made. TARTA provides some flexibility by allowing bidders who cannot make these declarations to submit a detailed explanation, which will be evaluated by the purchasing unit to determine if the non-compliance was intended to restrict competition.

DECLARATION OF NON-COLLUSION
By submission of this bid, each person signing on behalf of any bidder declares and certifies, and in the case of joint bid, each party thereto declares and certifies as to its own organization, that the following are true and correct statements:

2) Unless otherwise required by law, the prices which have been quoted in this bid have not been knowingly disclosed by the bidder and will not be knowingly disclosed by the bidder prior to the publicized opening of the bids, directly or indirectly, to any other bidder or to any other competitor; and
3) No attempt has been made or will be made by the bidder to induce any other person, partnership or corporation to submit or not to submit a bid for the purpose of restricting competition.

Note:
A bid shall not be considered for award, nor shall any award be made where paragraphs 1, 2 and
3 above have not been complied with and this Declaration signed to certify same: provided, however, that if in any case the bidder cannot make the foregoing declaration, the bidder shall so state and shall furnish with the bid a signed statement which sets forth in detail the reason therefore. Where any one or more of Paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 above have not been complied with, the bid shall not be considered for award, nor shall any award be made to the bidder, unless and until the head of the purchasing unit of TARTA, or his or her designee, determines that such disclosure was not made for the purpose of restricting competition.
The fact that a bidder (a) has published price lists, rates or tariffs covering items being procured or provided, (b) has informed prospective customers of proposed or pending publication of new or revised price lists for such items, or (c) has sold the same items to other customers at the same prices being bid, does not constitute, without more, collusion, consultation, communication, or agreement within the meaning of paragraph 1, disclosure within the meaning of Paragraph 2, or agreement within the meaning of paragraph 4.
