About this file
This is a Drug Free Workplace Certification form (Form 11) required by the Florida Department of Corrections for the Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) solicitation FDC-ITN-27-023 for the Operation and Management of Contractor-Operated Correctional Facilities. The form implements Florida Statutes Section 287.087, which provides a preference to vendors that certify implementation of a drug-free workforce program when identical tie proposals are received. Vendors must demonstrate compliance with six specific requirements: publishing a statement prohibiting unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession, or use of controlled substances in the workplace; informing employees about the dangers of drug abuse and the company's drug-free policy; providing each employee engaged in the contracted services a copy of the prohibition statement; notifying employees that compliance with the statement is a condition of employment and requiring notification of any drug-related convictions within five days; imposing sanctions or requiring participation in drug abuse assistance programs for convicted employees; and making a good faith effort to maintain a drug-free workplace through applicable laws and regulations.
An authorized representative of the vendor must sign the certification to confirm full compliance with all six requirements. This form serves as a prerequisite submission for vendors bidding on the South Bay Correctional Facility operation and management contract with the Florida Department of Corrections, with all responses required to be submitted through the MyFloridaMarketPlace Sourcing Event via the SAP Business Network. The certification demonstrates the vendor's commitment to workplace safety and regulatory compliance as part of the overall procurement evaluation process.
