Offerors must certify that, if awarded a contract, they will adhere to limitations based on their contract type: 50% for services contracts, 85% for general construction contracts, and 75% for special trade construction contracts. These percentages reflect the maximum paid to non-certified firms and exclude materials costs. The certification acknowledges the legal implications of providing false information and defines penalties for non-compliance, including fines and potential prosecution. Moreover, the document emphasizes the need for offerors to provide documents for verifying compliance, and reiterates that proposals lacking the required certification will not be evaluated.

This requirement replaces paper invoices with electronic submissions, reinforcing the need for compliance in all related contracting processes. Vendors have two primary methods for submitting electronic invoices: utilizing the VA’s Electronic Invoice Presentment and Payment System through Tungsten, or employing a system compatible with the X12 electronic data interchange formats as provided by ANSI's Accredited Standards Center. It is important to note that traditional methods such as facsimile, email, and scanned documents are not acceptable. Vendors seeking to transition to electronic invoicing can find assistance by contacting Tungsten or the FSC directly.
