2 C.F.R. ? 1200.10 gives regulatory effect to the Department of Transportation for 2 C.F.R. ? 180.300, which states, when you enter into a covered transaction with another person at the next lower tier, you must verify that the person with whom you intend to do business is not excluded or disqualified. You do this by: (a) Checking SAM (System for Award Management) Exclusions at https://www.sam.gov/SAM/pages/public/searchRecords/search.jsf; or (b) Collecting a certification from that person; or (c) Adding a clause or condition to the covered transaction with that person. The Authority entered into covered transactions with seven vendors included in the expense maintenance accounts that the Authority included in their federal reimbursement requests. The Authority did not verify that two of the seven (29%) vendors were not excluded or disqualified prior to entering into the contract or issuing payment. This was caused by a lack of internal controls over the federal suspension & debarment requirements

Last year, we implemented a process so that payments that exceed $25,000 would be checked against the list. This year, we have added an extra step and inserted a clause referencing debarment on all of our POs that we distribute, so that we are covered.

The Authority entered into covered transactions with four vendors included in the expense maintenance accounts that the Authority included in their federal reimbursement requests. The Authority did not verify that three of the four (75%) vendors were not excluded or disqualified prior to entering into the contract or issuing payment. The Auditors performed a search of the SAM for the vendors paid from Federal Transit Cluster and determined they were not excluded or disqualified. The Authority should ensure vendors are not excluded or disqualified using one of the three allowable methods prior to entering into covered transactions. If a search is performed on SAM, the Authority should maintain documentation of the search prior to entering into a contract and issuing payment.

Going forward, when using federal funds for any payment that exceeds $25,000, the company will be checked against the EPLS website to ensure that they have not been disbarred prior to payment. Our procurement Manager and AP person will ensure that this process is being followed.
