EXHIBIT M - Vendor Disclosure & Notification Form.pdf

This is a Vendor Disclosure and Notification Form issued by the Colorado State Purchasing Office (SPO) for reporting on contract performance conducted outside the United States or Colorado. The form applies to non-construction contracts and requires governmental bodies and their procurement offices to document any instances where vendors perform work outside U.S. or Colorado borders. Vendors are required to provide notice within 20 days of contracting or deciding to contract for services to be performed outside these geographic boundaries. The completed notification forms must be submitted to state_report2spo@state.co.us and subsequently posted on the SPO website. The form requests the vendor name, type of services performed outside the specified area, and the reason why performing work outside the U.S. or Colorado is necessary or advantageous to the contract performance.

The Office of the State Architect collects separate reporting on all construction-related contracts that fall outside the scope of this form. This disclosure mechanism serves as a transparency and compliance tool for the State of Colorado to track and monitor instances of out-of-state or international contract performance, ensuring that governmental bodies maintain proper documentation and justification for any work conducted beyond Colorado or U.S. borders. The form does not address pricing terms, funding sources, or set-asides, as its primary purpose is notification and disclosure documentation.
