The amount spent on government contracts, coupled with widely reported contractor misconduct, has generated congressional interest in debarment and suspension (D&S). Debarment or suspension of contractors is one means agencies use to ensure that they deal only with contractors who are responsible in fulfilling their legal and contractual obligations. Debarment removes a contractor¿s eligibility for government contracts for a fixed period of time, while suspension temporarily debars a contractor for the duration of an agency investigation or litigation.
