About this file

This is a Drug-Free Workplace Certification form required by Florida Statute 287.087 for the Escambia County Animal Welfare Facility architectural and engineering services contract. The form mandates that the selected A/E firm certify compliance with six specific drug-free workplace requirements: publishing a statement prohibiting unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession, or use of controlled substances in the workplace; informing employees about drug abuse dangers and available counseling or rehabilitation programs; distributing the policy statement to all employees engaged in the project; requiring employees to notify the employer of any drug-related convictions within five days; imposing sanctions or requiring participation in drug assistance programs for violations; and making good faith efforts to maintain ongoing compliance. The RFQ response deadline is December 2, 2025, at 10:30 am, with a mandatory pre-solicitation meeting scheduled for November 7, 2025. The contract term extends for 36 months upon execution with potential renewal options for additional 12-month periods.

The firm must indicate whether it fully complies with all drug-free workplace requirements or does not fully comply by checking the appropriate box and having an authorized representative sign and date the certification. Failure to certify compliance or disclosure of non-compliance may impact the firm's eligibility for award of the contract. No specific budget or funding source information is detailed in this certification document. The form serves as a prerequisite compliance document rather than addressing pricing terms, set-asides, or other financial considerations related to the architectural and engineering services solicitation.
