_H_Anti-Trust_Laws_Questionnaire_Electrical-Lighting.pdf

This Anti-Trust Laws Questionnaire is required by the County of San Mateo for a Job Order Contract for Electrical/Lighting services at various county-owned facilities, designated as Project No. JOC 2615 and 2616. The questionnaire must be completed in full and submitted with all bids. The document serves as a compliance instrument developed in accordance with instructions from the State of California Attorney General's Office regarding California and Federal Anti-Trust Laws.

The questionnaire contains four primary questions requiring yes or no responses from bidding contractors. These questions address: whether bid depository or registry services were used to obtain subcontractor bid figures; identification of any subcontractors using such services if applicable; whether the bidder obtained subcontractor bids from sources other than bid depositories; and whether any person or group has threatened the bidder with subcontractor boycotts, union boycotts, or other sanctions to compel use of specific bid depository services or adherence to their rules. Contractors must provide their company name, date, and signature, and are required to disclose the nature of any threats and provide additional comments as necessary. This questionnaire ensures bidding transparency and compliance with anti-trust regulations in the procurement process.
