Re: Certifications Riccillo, Claudine 20 Apr 2001 11:02 EST
The certifications are for our purchasing department. They have been told by our state auditors (A-133 audit)that they need to get these certifications whenever we are buying anything over $100,000 from a vendor. This is not subrecipient (or subcontract) we have language in our agreements that cover this. The auditor's are insisting that a universal statement covering the cerification language is not good enough, that we should have a web page with a bookmark to each federal agency's specific certifications and have the vendor sign the specific certification. This is virtually impossible. My question is how are other institutions handling this? -----Original Message----- From: Mckeough, Pamela M [mailto:xxxxxx@IUPUI.EDU] Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2001 10:16 AM To: xxxxxx@HRINET.ORG Subject: Re: [RESADM-L] Certifications Would you please clarify this a little. Are you concerned about making those certifications when you submit a proposal, when receiving an award, or including them in subcontracts? Who is asking that you have a website? -----Original Message----- From: Riccillo, Claudine [mailto:xxxxxx@UTEP.EDU] Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2001 10:39 AM To: xxxxxx@HRINET.ORG Subject: [RESADM-L] Certifications I would like to know what other schools are doing to satisfy the certifications required by E.O 12549 (certification of debarrment & suspension) in lower tier transactions over $100,000. We are being asked to have separate certifications for every federal agency available via website that would use the specific agency's language. What about other certifications (drug free, clean water act, etc.)?
