About this file

This is a Local Vendor Preference Certification form issued by the Collier County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division in Florida for the Generator Maintenance and Repair Services solicitation. The form certifies vendor eligibility to claim local business preference status in Collier County. To qualify as a local business, vendors must maintain a physical business address within Collier County limits from which staff operates, contribute measurably to the county's economic development and well-being, and possess a current local Business Tax Receipt (Occupational License) issued by the Collier County Tax Collector prior to bid submission. The certification requires vendors to affirm in writing their compliance with these requirements and establishes penalties for misrepresentation, including loss of local preference status for up to one year. The form requests company name, date, signature, and title of a duly authorized corporate representative executing the certification under penalties of perjury.

The Collier County Public Utilities Water Division has issued an Invitation to Bid for Generator Maintenance and Repair Services covering both portable and stationary generators. Historical annual spending for these services has approximated $1,500,000, though this may not be indicative of future spending patterns. Bid submittals must meet the minimum requirements specified in the scope of work and specifications. Once awarded, results of this solicitation may be utilized by other County departments according to the Board of County Commissioners Procurement Ordinance. The certification process allows qualified local vendors to receive preference consideration in the competitive bidding process.

State of Florida (Select County if Vendor is described as a Local Business) Collier County Lee County

Vendor affirms that it is a local business as defined by Section Sixteen of the Collier County Procurement Ordinance:

• A physical business address in Collier County with a County business address as listed with the Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations located within the limits of Collier County from which the vendor's staff operates and performs business in an area zoned for the conduct of such business. A post office box or a facility that receives mail, or a non-permanent structure such as a construction trailer, storage shed, or other non-permanent structure shall not be used to establish the physical address. In addition to the foregoing, a vendor shall not be considered a "local business" unless it contributes to the economic development and well-being of Collier County in a verifiable and measurable way. This may include, but not be limited to, the retention and expansion of employment opportunities, support and increase to the County's tax base, and residency of employees and principals of the business within Collier County. Vendors shall affirm in writing their compliance with the foregoing at the time of submitting their bid or proposal to be eligible for consideration as a "local business" under this section. A vendor who misrepresents the Local Preference status of its firm in a proposal or bid submitted to the County will lose the privilege to claim Local Preference status for a period of up to one year; and

• A current local Business Tax Receipt (also known as an Occupational License) issued by the Collier County Tax Collector prior to bid or proposal submission.

If requested by the County, Vendor will be required to provide documentation substantiating the information given in this certification. Failure to do so will result in the vendor’s submission being deemed non-responsive.

Under penalties of perjury, I certify that the information shown on this form is correct to my knowledge and a duly corporate authorized representative with signature authority.
