About this file
This is a Conflict of Interest Statement attachment (Attachment D) for RFQ No. 781-5-03287 from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB). The document requires respondents to remain neutral and impartial, prohibiting advocacy of specific positions to THECB. Respondents must provide complete disclosure of any potential conflicts of interest, including the extent, nature, and length of relationships that could be considered conflicts. Failure to provide either a statement declaring no conflicts or disclosing potential conflicts will result in automatic disqualification.
The document specifies that THECB cannot contract with persons employed by THECB within the past 12 months. Those employed by THECB or other Texas state agencies between 12-24 months ago must disclose their previous employment details. The document includes an unsworn declaration form for the authorized respondent representative to complete and sign, certifying the truthfulness of their conflict of interest disclosure. Additionally, respondents are discouraged from including indemnification terms in their proposals, as THECB is constitutionally prevented from indemnifying respondents.

ATTACHMENT D – CONFLICT OF INTEREST STATEMENT
RFQ No. 781-5-03287
Respondents shall be neutral and impartial and shall not advocate specific positions to THECB. Respondents are encouraged to provide complete disclosure of matters that might be considered a conflict of interest. Completeness of disclosure may be a factor in evaluating proposals. Respondents shall identify the extent, nature, and length of any relationships or engagements that might be considered a conflict of interest. THECB will determine whether a conflict of interest or the perception of a conflict of interest exists from the perspective of a reasonable person uninvolved in the matters covered by the resulting contract. THECB is the sole arbiter of whether a conflict or the appearance of a conflict of interests exists. Entities having a conflict of interest, as determined by THECB, will not be eligible for contract award.
If a Respondent does not have any known or potential conflict of interest, the proposal should include such a statement. Failure to provide either a statement on potential conflicts of interest or a statement that no potential conflicts exist shall automatically disqualify the Respondent.
Respondents must address how they intend to ensure that no interest arising or potentially arising as a result of its activities or those of its parent, affiliate, or other related entity shall conflict with Respondent’s duty should it be selected to provide these services.
THECB may not enter into a contract with a person who has been employed by THECB within the past twelve months. Persons who have been employed by THECB or by another state agency in Texas more than twelve months but fewer than twenty-four months ago shall disclose in the proposal the nature of previous employment with the state agency and the date the employment ended.
NOTE: THECB, as a state agency, is prevented by the Texas Constitution from indemnifying Respondents. Respondents are discouraged from including a term in their Proposal that requires THECB to indemnify them. Such a term may result in the proposal being deemed nonresponsive.
