About this file
Exhibit A-6 is a Drug-Free Workplace Program certification document for the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) 007-24/25, which requires vendors to establish and maintain a comprehensive drug-free workplace program. The document outlines specific requirements for businesses seeking to participate in the procurement, including publishing employee statements about controlled substance prohibitions, informing employees about drug abuse dangers, providing written policy statements, and establishing workplace conduct expectations. Vendors must commit to maintaining a drug-free workplace by implementing these guidelines, with provisions for employee notifications, sanctions, and rehabilitation support.
The certification is part of a larger Medicaid Population Data Review Solution solicitation, where vendors must complete this form as part of their response package. The ITN seeks a cloud-based interactive dashboard for population health analytics, with a total contract value of $3,100,000 for the initial term from June 16, 2025, through June 15, 2026, with potential renewals for up to three additional years. Respondents will be evaluated across ten Submission Requirement Components using a 0-5 point scoring system, with responses due on April 24, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. The procurement includes strict vendor restrictions, particularly prohibiting managed care organizations or their contractors from responding, and requires comprehensive legal and ethical certifications, E-Verify registration, and compliance with Florida state statutes.

EXHIBIT A-6
CERTIFICATION OF DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE PROGRAM
In the event of Identical or Tie Bids/Proposals: Preference shall be given to businesses with drug-free workplace programs. Whenever two or more bids which are equal with respect to price, quality, and service are received by the State or by any political subdivision for the procurement of commodities or contractual services, a bid received from a business that certifies that it has implemented a drug-free work place program shall be given preference in the award process. Established procedures for processing tied awards will be followed if none of the tied vendors have a drug-free workplace program. In order to have a drug-free workplace program, a business shall:
1) Publish a statement notifying employees that the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession, or use of a controlled substance is prohibited in the workplace and specifying the actions that will be taken against employees for violations of such prohibition.
2) Inform employees about the dangers of drug abuse in the workplace, the business’s policy of maintaining a drug-free workplace, any available drug counseling, rehabilitation, and employee assistance programs, and the penalties that may be imposed upon employees for drug abuse violations.
3) Give each employee engaged in providing the commodities or contractual services that are under bid a copy of the statement specified in subsection (1).
4) In the statement specified in subsection (1), notify the employees that, as a condition of working on the commodities or contractual services that are under bid, the employee will abide by the terms of the statement and will notify the employer of any conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, any violation of chapter 893 or of any controlled substance law of the United States or any state, for a violation occurring in the workplace no later than five (5) days after such conviction.
5) Impose a sanction on, or require the satisfactory participation in a drug abuse assistance or rehabilitation program if such is available in the employee’s community by, any employee who is so convicted.
6) Make a good faith effort to continue to maintain a drug-free workplace through implementation of this section.
As the person authorized to sign the statement, I certify that this firm complies fully with the above requirements.
