Interagency Suspension and Debarment Committee (ISDC)
Overview
Section 4 of Executive Order 12549 on Debarment and Suspension directed the establishment of the Interagency Suspension and Debarment Committee (ISDC) to monitor implementation of the Order. This Order mandates Executive departments and agencies to:
• Participate in a government-wide system for debarment and suspension from programs and activities involving Federal financial and nonfinancial assistance and benefits,
• Issue regulations with government-wide criteria and minimum due process procedures when debarring or suspending participants, and
• Enter debarred and suspended participants’ identifying information on the General Services Administration list of excluded persons, now known as the System for Award Management (SAM). Information placed on SAM is the responsibility of the Agency issuing the suspension or debarment action.
