The Advisory, available at buvboard.com/Vendor/Resources.asr)x, provides an overview of certain legal requirements that are potentially relevant to a Cooperative member's procurement of construction or construction -related goods and services, including those for projects that may involve or require architecture, engineering or independent testing services. A copy of the Advisory can also be provided upon request. Because many BuyBoard contracts include goods or installation services that might be considered construction -related, Proposer must make this Construction Related -Goods and Services Affirmation regardless of type of goods or services associated with this Proposal Invitation.

By signature on the Compliance Forms Signature Page, Proposer affirms that Proposer has obtained a copy of the Advisory, has read and understands the Advisory, and is authorized by Proposer to make this affirmation. If Proposer sells construction - related goods or services to a Cooperative member under a Contract awarded under this Proposal Invitation, Proposer will comply with the Advisory and applicable legal requirements, make a good faith effort to make its Cooperative member customers or potential Cooperative member customers aware of such requirements, and provide a Cooperative member with a copy of the Advisory before accepting the member's Purchase Order or other agreement for construction -related goods or services.

The contract offers a variety of products for highway safety and traffic control. The user -departments will utilize the agreements to purchase various road safety and traffic control products and equipment, such as roadwork barricades, on an as needed basis.
