The document is a certification form that contractors must submit with bids or offers exceeding $100,000. It certifies that no federal funds have been or will be used to influence individuals related to the awarding of federal contracts, grants, loans, or cooperative agreements. If any non-federal funds are used for influencing, a separate disclosure form must be completed. The certification must be included in all subawards, and failure to comply may result in civil penalties. The contractor's authorized official must sign the certification, affirming its truthfulness and accuracy. The document also references the application of 31 U.S.C. § 3801 to the certification and disclosure.
