Nonprocurement Suspension and Debarment

The U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) is issuing a final rule to implement its nonprocurement debarment and suspension regulations. With this regulatory action, DFC adopts Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations with some agency specific additions and clarifications. This final rule states what contracts are covered under this regulation, identifies the official authorized to grant exceptions to an excluded persons list, and states the person responsible for communicating requirements to both first and second tier program participants. Elements not addressed in this regulation are covered by the Governmentwide sections in the common rule.
