IV Debarment and Suspension Procedure.pdf

The document outlines the Uniform County Purchasing Procedures related to debarment and suspension of vendors. It specifies the authority of the Purchasing Director to debar or suspend vendors for various reasons, including violations of laws or contracts, failure to perform, providing false information, attempting to influence the bidding process unfairly, bribery, and unethical behavior. The procedures for suspension and debarment are detailed, including the conditions, appeal process, and potential reinstatement after corrective actions. The appeal process allows suspended or debarred vendors to protest the action in writing, with a review process leading to a final decision by the Director of the Department of Finance and Administration. Additionally, it outlines circumstances under which a debarment period may be reduced.
