About this file
This document is a Vendor Affidavit from Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) related to human trafficking prevention, specifically addressing Section 787.06(13) of Florida Statutes. The affidavit requires nongovernmental entities executing, renewing, or extending contracts with governmental entities to certify that they do not engage in coercive labor practices. The affidavit is part of a broader Device as a Service (DaaS) contract opportunity where HCPS seeks to establish a 4-year refresh cycle for computing devices for students and employees, with comprehensive life cycle management including configuration, deployment, asset management, support, and disposal.
The affidavit mandates that contractors affirm they will not use physical force, restrain individuals, establish exploitative debt arrangements, confiscate identification documents, cause financial harm, entice through fraud, or provide controlled substances for exploitation. Contractors must sign under penalty of perjury, confirming their compliance with these strict anti-trafficking provisions. This requirement serves as a critical compliance mechanism to ensure ethical labor practices among vendors participating in the HCPS technology procurement process, with the affidavit serving as a legal declaration of the contractor's commitment to fair and non-coercive business practices.
