State of Suspension and Debarment
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 08.10.18
The Interagency Suspension and Debarment Committee recently issued its report on FY2017 exclusion statistics. The report highlighted a substantial decline in numbers of exclusions (approximately 14 percent) and an increase in numbers of proactive contractor outreach efforts to SDOs. While the decline in overall governmentwide exclusion activity does not directly correlate with increased proactive contractor engagement, the overarching message from this report is the value of contractor outreach to suspending and debarring officials to avoid being excluded from government contracting and federal assistance programs.
