About this file

This document is a certification form related to the payment of employee health care expenses under the State Finance & Procurement Article Title 17, Subtitle 8, in connection with Solicitation Number BPM020995. The firm must certify that it pays at least 5% of the aggregate social security wages for employee health care expenses or that it pays 50% or more of the required premium for employee coverage by a credible health care insurance plan. The firm also has the option to certify that it pays some portion of employee health care expenses under a contract with a credible health care insurance plan or through a collective bargaining agreement, and that it will meet the requirements of the other options upon renewal. Firms with 30 or fewer employees are exempt from this requirement.

The related state and local contract opportunity is for the replacement of exterior logs of several cabins at Herrington Manor State Park and New Germany State Park, both located in Garrett County, Maryland. The project requires the contractor to provide all labor, equipment, materials, supplies, and insurance necessary for the cabin log replacement.
