Suspension and debarment check for federal awards (2 CFR 180 / 200) — the steps as written
● a dated receipt is the record at this step · printable
| # | Step | Who | When | Record | Citation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Identify each covered transaction: a procurement contract expected to equal or exceed $25,000, any subaward, and any contract the award terms designate. | recipient or pass-through entity | before entering the transaction | the procurement or subaward file | 2 CFR 180.220(b); 2 CFR 200.214 |
| 2 ● | Before entering it, do one of three things: (a) check SAM.gov Exclusions for the party, (b) collect a certification from the party, or (c) add a clause to the transaction. | recipient | before award | the dated SAM exclusions read under the party's name and UEI — option (a) | 2 CFR 180.300 |
| 3 ● | Keep the read with the procurement history for that transaction. | recipient | at award | dated, hashed receipt filed with the procurement record | 2 CFR 200.318(i); Retain 3 years from the date the final expenditure report is submitted (2 CFR 200.334). |
| 4 | Pass the requirement down: the subaward or contract carries the 2 CFR 180 terms so the lower tier does the same. | pass-through entity | at subaward | subaward terms | 2 CFR 180.330; 2 CFR 200.332(a) |
| 5 ● | Where the program conditions a payment on the payee's eligibility, read the payee's name before disbursing and file it with the invoice. | recipient (accounts payable) | before each covered disbursement | payment-time read on the payee's printed name | 24 CFR 570.506 (CDBG records); 2 CFR 200.403 |
How the auditor tests it
- Select a sample of procurements at or above $25,000 and of subawards; determine whether, before entering each, the entity checked SAM Exclusions, collected a certification, or included a clause — and whether the file shows it. — OMB Compliance Supplement (2 CFR 200 App. XI), Part 3, Section I — Procurement and Suspension and Debarment, audit objectives and suggested audit procedures
- Finding written when the check cannot be evidenced: 'documentation of verification through SAM.gov or equivalent methods was not available' (Hamilton Health Center 2025-003, FAC report 2025-03-GSAFAC-0000391916). — the auditor's words as filed at fac.gov
The steps as the regulation and the auditor's program state them, each with its citation. Nothing here is advice or a determination; the agency's text controls. A dated receipt is the record at the marked steps — it shows what the official file printed on the read date, not that the step was done correctly.

Forms Desk
Ask what the rule requires. Every sentence cites or the desk says the sources don't answer.
Answers come only from the Forms Register, the procedure steps as the regulation writes them, the eCFR text and the customer's own filing. The desk never says whether a duty was met, whether a cost is allowable, or what an auditor will conclude.
