About this file
This is an attachment to Request for Proposal No. 4617.2 from Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) in Maryland establishing certification and compliance requirements for offerors and subcontractors. The document sets forth the Certification of Nonsegregated Facilities, which all offerors must execute and submit with their proposals. By submission of an offer, the offeror certifies that no segregated facilities are maintained or provided for employees and that employees will not be permitted to perform services at any location under the offeror's control where segregated facilities are maintained. Segregated facilities are defined broadly to include rooms, work areas, restrooms, dining areas, time clocks, locker rooms, parking lots, drinking fountains, recreation areas, transportation, and housing facilities that are segregated by explicit directive or in fact segregated on the basis of race, creed, color, or national origin due to habit, local custom, or otherwise. The offeror agrees that any breach of this certification constitutes a violation of the Equal Opportunity clause in the contract.
Offerors are further required to obtain identical certifications from all proposed subcontractors prior to subcontract award for any subcontract exceeding $10,000 that is not exempt from the Equal Opportunity clause provisions. The offeror must provide prospective subcontractors with written notice of the certification requirement, allowing subcontractors to submit certifications either for individual subcontracts or for all subcontracts during specified periods such as quarterly, semiannually, or annually. The document explicitly states that failure of an offeror to agree to and submit the Certification of Nonsegregated Facilities shall render its offer nonresponsive and ineligible for award.

Date:_________________
Certification of Nonsegregated Facilities
By submission of this offer, the Offeror or subcontractor certifies that there is not maintained or provided for employees any segregated facilities and that employees will not be permitted to perform their services at any location, under the Offeror’s control, where segregated facilities are maintained. The Offeror, or subcontractor, agrees that a breach of this certification is a violation of the Equal Opportunity clause in this contract. As used in this certification, the term "Segregated
Facilities" means any rooms, work areas, restrooms and wash rooms, restaurants and other eating areas, time clocks, locker rooms and storage or dressing areas, parking lots, drinking fountains, recreation or entertainment areas, transportation, and housing facilities provided for employees which are segregated by explicit directive or are in fact segregated on the basis of race, creed, color, or national origin because of habit, local custom, or otherwise. The Offeror further agrees that except where there has been obtained identical certifications from proposed subcontractors prior to the award of subcontracts exceeding $10,000 which are not exempt from the provisions of the Equal Opportunity clause that there will be forwarded the following notice to such proposed subcontractors except where the proposed subcontractors have submitted certifications for specific time period:
Notice to Prospective Subcontractors of
Requirement for Certifications of
Nonsegregated Facilities

The certification may be submitted either for each subcontract or for all subcontracts during a period, i.e., quarterly, semiannually, or annually.
NOTE: Failure of an Offeror to agree to the Certification of Nonsegregated Facilities shall render its offer nonresponsive.
