Exhibit_D_E-Verify-1.PDF

This is an E-Verify compliance exhibit for the Carmel Fire Department Vehicles IFB 2026, administered by the Board of Public Works and Safety for the City of Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana. The document establishes E-Verify requirements as a mandatory condition of bid participation and contract performance. Bidders are required to demonstrate compliance with federal E-Verify employment verification procedures and must attest to their enrollment in or commitment to enroll in the E-Verify system prior to contract award. The exhibit applies to all contractors and subcontractors performing work under this procurement, with documentation of E-Verify status required as part of the bid submission package. Failure to comply with E-Verify requirements may result in bid rejection or contract termination.

The E-Verify compliance requirement reflects Indiana's statutory obligations regarding employment eligibility verification. Bidders must certify that they maintain a valid E-Verify account or will obtain one before commencing contract performance, and they must verify the employment eligibility of all employees assigned to the contract in accordance with federal law. This provision is non-waivable and applies uniformly to all prospective vendors regardless of company size or prior contracting history with the City of Carmel.
