a. The Department of Commerce and Economic Development shall be responsible for the operation and continued development of the central registry, known as the Selective Assistance Vendor Information (SAVI II) database, which lists businesses certified as eligible to perform contracts under any State set-aside program. The purpose of the database shall be to enable contracting agencies and persons bidding on, or performing, State contracts to have ready access to the names of businesses which are eligible to perform set-aside contracts and to allow the department and contracting agencies to monitor participation by these businesses in State contracting.

b. The department shall randomly monitor businesses certified as eligible for any State set-aside program, or seeking such certification, to ensure compliance with eligibility requirements.

c. A person applying for the certification of a business as eligible for participation in any State set-aside program shall certify in writing that the person believes that the business meets all of the requirements for eligibility for the program. Any person who makes a false statement in connection therewith shall be subject to the penalties provided by N.J.S. 2C:28-2.
