FAR Subpart 9.405(d)(1) require contracting officers to review the EPLS after the opening of bids or receipt of proposals. FAR Subpart 9.405(d)(4) require contracting officers to review the EPLS again, immediately prior to award, to ensure that no award is made to a listed contractor. FAR 9.405-1(b) also requires contracting officers to check the EPLS prior to awarding “new work” as defined in this provision. Subpart D of the Government-wide Nonprocurement Suspension and Debarment Common Rule requires agency officials to check the EPLS before they enter into a primary tier covered transaction, approve a principal in a primary tier covered transaction, approve a lower tier participant when agency approval is required, or approve a principal in a lower tier transaction if agency approval of the principal is required.
