Through our testing we noted that the City was not able to provide documentation supporting suspension and disbarment checks performed for seven vendors. Questioned Costs: None noted. Context: CLA reviewed eight vendors and for seven vendors, proof of suspension and disbarment checks were not available for review. Cause: The City's policies require that departments verify vendors through sam.gov prior to entering into transactions. However, the policy does not include documentation of these checks. Effect: Without checking debarment before engaging services, the City could have entered into an agreement with a vendor that was disbarred from receiving federal funding. Repeat Finding: This is not a repeat finding. Recommendation: CLA recommends the City implement procedures to ensure that federal guidance is followed relating to suspension and disbarment and provide training on these procedures, including maintaining documentation of the reviews performed by the City. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit findings.

Currently, City of Chico has language in its Purchasing Manual and purchasing procedures requiring a check through SAM.gov of any vendors entering into contract that are federally funded for Suspension and Disbarment. While this process is outlined and required, there has until recently been no documentation of the inquiry. The City has implemented the requirement to include language in all federally funded contracts that the vendor will abide by the Suspension and Disbarment rules, as well as those departments processing new agreements will be required to attest to checking SAM.gov for that vendor.
