About this file

This is a Reciprocal Limitations Act compliance form (GSPUR-89) issued by the Pennsylvania Department of General Services for use in state and local contract bidding processes. The form requires bidders to provide comprehensive documentation regarding manufacturing locations, bidder residency, and business establishment credentials within Pennsylvania. Bidders must complete a chart identifying the manufacturer and state or country of manufacture for each item, with submission required either with the initial bid or within two business days of notification from the issuing office. Failure to provide this information within the specified timeframe results in automatic bid rejection. For the related SCI Camp Hill Sewer & Grease Traps contract, Pennsylvania Department of Corrections seeks a contractor to provide emergency vac truck services (up to 110 hours), jetter/vac combination services (160 hours), bi-weekly scheduled maintenance of lift stations and on-demand manhole cleaning, annual video camera inspection services (40 hours), and one-time annual cleaning of a 10,000-gallon kitchen grease trap. The contractor must maintain a two-hour emergency response time and provide skilled personnel capable of passing background checks and clearance requirements. A mandatory pre-bid site visit is scheduled for August 4, 2026 at 9:00 AM, with registration required by July 30, 2026 at 1:00 PM.

Pennsylvania resident bidders claiming preference under state reciprocal limitations provisions must document their bona fide business establishment within the state at the time bids were first solicited. Documentation requirements vary by entity type: corporations must provide proof of Pennsylvania incorporation or a valid certificate of authority to conduct business in the state; partnerships must furnish evidence of registration if operating under assumed names or as out-of-state limited partnerships; and individuals must register any assumed or fictitious business names with the Secretary of the Commonwealth and applicable county offices. All bidders must verify their address information and provide corrections if necessary to ensure accurate residency determination for preference eligibility.
