VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW
The 1985 Session of the Texas Legislature passed House Bill 620 relative to the award of contracts to
non-resident bidders. The law that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, non-resident bidders
(out-of-state contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside of the state of
Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an mount lower than
the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to
underbid a non-resident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the state in which the
non-residenYs principle place of business is located. The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled
out by all out-of-state or non-resident bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of
out-of-state or non-resident contractors to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders
must check the box in Section B.
A. Non-resident vendors in (give state), our principal place of business, are required
to be percent lower than resident bidders by state law. A copy of the statute is
attached.
Non resident vendors in (give state), or principal place of business, are not
required to underbid resident bidders.
B. Our principal place of business or corporate offices are in the State of Texas. [j��
