Policies and procedures should reiterate the three options for determining suspension and debarment status listed in 2 CFR 180.300. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action planned in response to finding: The management of the Housing Authority of the City of Erie has reviewed our procedure to ensure compliance with the policies and procedures regarding suspension and debarment status as listed in 2 CFR 180.300. We have reviewed with staff the procedures to verify that the entity, as defined in 2 CFR section 180.995, is not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded from participating in the transaction. This verification will be accomplished by checking the System for Award Management (SAM) Exclusions maintained by the General Services Administration (GSA). The Authority has implemented the procedure and assigned a staff member, Jessica Steinburg, to run all debarment checks. This has been completed with the two most recent service contracts awarded. Name of the contact person responsible for corrective action: Linda Lewis, Controller Planned completion date for corrective action plan: The internal management procedure review with staff has already occurred. The debarment checks through the SAM system for each contract has already been assigned to a staff member and the process has already begun.
