The SAM.gov Exclusions is a widely available source of the most current information about persons who are excluded or disqualified from covered transactions.
(a) Federal agency officials use SAM.gov Exclusions to determine whether to enter into a transaction with a person, as required under § 180.430.
(b) Participants also may, but are not required to, use SAM.gov Exclusions to determine if:
(1) Principals of their transactions are excluded or disqualified, as required under § 180.320; or
(2) Persons with whom they are entering into covered transactions at the next lower tier are excluded or disqualified.
(c) The SAM.gov Exclusions are available to the general public.
GSA maintains SAM.gov Exclusions. When a Federal agency takes an action to exclude a person under the nonprocurement or procurement debarment and suspension system, the agency enters the information about the excluded person into SAM.gov Exclusions.
