Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: The District will implement procedures in the 22-23 fiscal year to correct this compliance issue. District staff will follow procedures to verify that the District is not using vendors who are either suspended or debarred by the federal government, using the SAM.gov website. The following language has been communicated to CUSD staff and added to the District?s Business Users Guidelines Document. To process a requisition using Federal Monies (resource codes 3000-5999), staff shall perform the following procedures: Non-federal entities are subject to the non-procurement debarment and suspension regulations. These regulations restrict awards, sub-awards, and contracts with certain parties that are debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from or ineligible for participation in Federal assistance programs or activities (2 CFR 200.213). To check if a vendor is disbarred or suspended: a. Go to the website at www.sam.gov (you do not need to register). b. Verify the status of the vendor by performing the following: ? Click on the search records icon on the top left. ? Use the "quick search" box and enter the vendor's name (leave remaining classifications blank) c. Click search at the bottom of the web page. d. Print a copy of the search results including if results were not found. e. If the vendor is not debarred, note on the requisition and / or contract if applicable, that the vendor has been checked in the SAM system and is not debarred. Include a copy of the printed page with the requisition. f. If a vendor search produces no results, print the page and attach as supporting documentation to the requisition. Note on the requisition and / or contract is applicable that the vendor has been checked in the SAM system. ? The District is prohibited from doing business with a vendor or individual that is debarred or suspended.
