FORM H -CERTIFICATION OF GOOD FAITH EFFORTS.pdf

This is a Bidder/Proposer Notarized Certification of Good Faith Efforts form required by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) for contract bidding and proposal submissions. The form serves as a formal attestation that bidders have actively and aggressively undertaken comprehensive good faith efforts to solicit and utilize Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) firms to meet the DBE participation requirements established for the specific contract. Bidders must certify under penalty of perjury that they have made documented good faith efforts and submit supporting documentation as evidence of their outreach and engagement with DBE firms.

The certification must be completed by the authorized representative of the bidding company and notarized by a licensed notary public. The notarized form requires the bidder's signature, printed name, company affiliation, and date, along with corresponding notary information including the notary's signature, printed name, address, county, state, and date of notarization. The form emphasizes that all information provided and attached as supporting evidence of the company's good faith efforts must be true, valid, and accurate to the best of the bidder's knowledge. This documentation serves as verification of compliance with federal DBE participation requirements for LACMTA-funded contracts.
