About this file

This is a Domestic Workforce Utilization Certification form for multiple award contracts issued by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of General Services, in connection with a Low-Income Tax Clinic (LITC) partnership opportunity with the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue. The certification establishes workforce localization requirements as an evaluation criterion for contract awards, with maximum consideration given to suppliers committing to perform all direct labor exclusively within the United States or within countries that are parties to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement. Contractors must complete and sign the certification to receive any consideration under this criterion, and the certification becomes a contractual obligation upon execution. The form requires contractors to either certify that all direct labor will be performed within approved geographical boundaries or specify the percentage of labor to be performed within such boundaries, with identification of any work to be performed outside the United States and outside WTO Government Procurement Agreement member countries.

The certification establishes that misstatements regarding workforce location will be treated as fraudulent concealment punishable under Pennsylvania Crimes Code Section 4904. Contractors performing a portion of direct labor outside approved geographical locations will receive proportionally lower scores for the domestic workforce utilization criterion. The form requires attestation by both the contractor and a corporate or legal entity representative, with signatures and printed names and titles. The certification applies to the Low-Income Tax Clinic NorthWest contract, under which a Qualified LITC will provide pro bono tax services, education, and dispute resolution support to low-income Pennsylvania taxpayers regarding Pennsylvania state tax issues, with mid-point and final status reports required.

DOMESTIC WORKFORCE UTILIZATION CERTIFICATION FOR MULTIPLE AWARD CONTRACTS

To the extent permitted by the laws and treaties of the United States, this certification will be used by the Agency in making a best value selection for each particular assignment. Each quote will be evaluated for its commitment to use the domestic workforce in the fulfillment of the contract. Maximum consideration will be given to those suppliers who will perform the contracted direct labor exclusively within the geographical boundaries of the United States or within the geographical boundaries of a country that is a party to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement. Those who propose to perform a portion of the direct labor outside of the United States and not within the geographical boundaries of a party to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement will receive a correspondingly smaller score for this criterion. In order to be eligible for any consideration for this criterion, suppliers must complete and sign the following certification. This certification will be included as a contractual obligation when the contract is executed. Failure to complete and sign this certification will result in no consideration being given to the supplier for this criterion.
