InsuranceCertificate-Sample.pdf

This is a sample insurance certificate document related to a landscaping and grounds maintenance contract for the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) District 8 Rest Area sites 47 and 48 located in Dauphin County. The document serves as evidence of required insurance coverage that bidders and contractors must maintain throughout the project term. While specific contract dates, site visit schedules, and bidder conference information are not detailed in this certificate template, the document establishes the framework for demonstrating compliance with insurance requirements prior to contract award and during performance.

This procurement is set aside exclusively for Micro Business Reserve participants, requiring that all eligible bidders obtain Department of General Services (DGS) Certification as a Certified Micro Business prior to the bid closing date. Prospective bidders must apply for DGS Certification through the designated application portal before submitting bids. The insurance certificate serves as documentation that contractors maintain adequate coverage as a condition of eligibility and contract performance, protecting both the contractor and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania throughout the landscaping and grounds maintenance services period.
