LGBTQ_Applicant_Data_Form_B2728393.pdf

This is an LGBTQ Applicant Data Form submitted in connection with a Complete Filtration and Water Treatment System micro purchase opportunity for the City in Pennsylvania. The form serves as a self-certification document for applicants to identify as LGBTQ-owned businesses, consistent with diversity and inclusion initiatives. The micro purchase will be awarded as a whole or by line item, at the City's discretion, to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. All items must be quoted to be eligible for award consideration, and no delivery or services should commence until formal notification is received from the department.

The form requests applicant information and LGBTQ ownership status but does not establish pricing terms, funding amounts, or contract duration details within the document itself. This self-certification mechanism allows the City to track LGBTQ participation in procurement activities and may inform future policy decisions regarding diversity set-asides or preference programs, though such measures are not explicitly stated as selected in this particular procurement action.
