INSTRUCTIONS FOR NON-COLLUSION AFFIDAVIT
1. This Non-Collusion Affidavit is material to any contract awarded pursuant to this bid and in
accordance with the Pennsylvania Antibid-Rigging Act, 73 P.S. 1611 et seq.
2. This Non-Collusion Affidavit must be executed by the member, officer or employee of the Bidder who makes
the final decision on prices and the amount quoted in the bid.
3. Bid rigging and other efforts to restrain competition, and the making of false sworn statements in
connection with the submission of bids are unlawful and may be subject to criminal prosecution.
The person who signs the Affidavit should examine it very carefully before signing and assure
himself or herself that each statement is true and accurate, making diligent inquiry, as necessary, of
all other persons employed by or associated with the bidder with responsibilities for the
preparation, approval, or submission of the bid.
4. In the case of a bid submitted by a joint venture, each party to the venture must be identified in the
bid documents, and an Affidavit must be submitted separately on behalf of each party.
5. The term “Complementary Bid” as used in the Affidavit has the meaning commonly associated with
the term in the bidding process, and includes the knowing submission of bids higher than the bid of
another firm, any intentionally high or noncompetitive bid, and any other form of bid submitted for
the purpose of giving a false appearance of competition.
6. Failure to file an Affidavit in compliance with these instructions will result in disqualification of the
bid.
7. A person’s affidavit stating that the person has been convicted or found liable of any act prohibited
by State or Federal law in any jurisdiction involving conspiracy or collusion with respect to bidding
in any public contract within the last three (3) years does not prohibit a governmental agency from
accepting a bid or awarding a contract to that person, but may be a ground for administration,
suspension or debarment in the discretion of a governmental agency under the rules and
regulations of that agency, or, in the case of a governmental agency with no administrative
suspension or debarment regulations or procedures, may be a ground for consideration on the
question whether such agency should decline to award the contract to that person on the basis of a
lack of responsibility.
