Checks a prime runs before teaming: SAM.gov exclusions (debarment and suspension) and the government's Consolidated Screening List for export and sanctions lists.

SAM.gov exclusions

Not yet checked against SAM.gov exclusions.

Search exclusions on SAM.gov (opens in a new tab)

Agencies generally may not award to excluded parties, and primes may not subcontract with them above the threshold in FAR 52.209-6 (except COTS items) without a compelling reason reported to the contracting officer (FAR 9.405, 9.405-2). Some exclusion types apply only to specific programs: read the record on SAM.gov.

Consolidated Screening List

No confirmed match on the Consolidated Screening List (screened Nov 13, 2026).

The list combines Commerce, State and Treasury export-control and sanctions lists. A “no match” result is a name-and-address screen, not an export-compliance determination.

Hourly ceiling rates this company was awarded on GSA contracts, compared with the market for similar labor categories. Ceiling rates are the most an agency can be charged, not prices paid.
