The Designated Contact(s) for this Governmental Procurement, as of the date hereof, are identified on the first page of this solicitation. Governmental Entity employees are also required to obtain certain information when Contacted during the Restricted Period and make a determination of the responsibility of the Offerer/bidder pursuant to these two statutes.

Further information about these requirements can be found at https://ogs.ny.gov/acpl.

Offerer Disclosure of Prior Non-Responsibility Determinations

New York State Finance Law §139-k(2) obligates a Governmental Entity to obtain specific information regarding prior non-responsibility determinations with respect to State Finance Law §139-j. This information must be collected in addition to the information that is separately obtained pursuant to State Finance Law §163(9). In accordance with State Finance Law §139-k, an Offerer must be asked to disclose whether there has been a finding of non-responsibility made within the previous four (4) years by any Governmental Entity due to: (a) a violation of State Finance Law §139-j or (b) the intentional provision of false or incomplete information to a Governmental Entity. The terms “Offerer” and “Governmental Entity” are defined in State Finance Law § 139-k(1).

As part of its responsibility determination, State Finance Law §139-k(3) mandates consideration of whether an Offerer fails to timely disclose accurate or complete information regarding the above non-responsibility determination.

Such policy shall, at a minimum, meet the requirements of section two hundred one-g of the labor law.

Generally, the Human Rights Law applies to:

• all employers of four or more people, employment agencies, labor organizations and apprenticeship training programs in all instances of discrimination or harassment;

• employers with fewer than four employees in all cases involving sexual harassment; and,

• any employer of domestic workers in cases involving sexual harassment or harassment based on gender, race, religion or national origin.
