When facing a proposed debarment or suspension from federal government contracts, it is important to retain counsel to assist you. Our law firm focuses on representing individual government contractors who have been proposed for debarment or suspension. As part of the debarment process, it is very important to obtain as many documents to support a government contractor’s case. Most of the information that will be sought will be included in what is known as the “Administrative Record” held by the government.
Request for Administrative Record in Debarment Cases
The Administrative Record consists of the materials that the proposed debarment or suspension relies upon. As mentioned above, these materials in the Administrative Record are important to review in preparing to respond to the allegations under review. Usually, in proposed debarment or suspension notices, the Government will inform the government contractor about the ability to request the Administrative Record as part of the process.
Types of Documents in the Administrative Record
The Administrative Record can consist of varying types of documents depending on the issues in the proposed debarment or suspension. These can include:
1. The Proposed Debarment / Action Notice;
2. Scheduling correspondence;
3. Written information, arguments and supporting documents submitted by different
parties; and
4. Other Relevant correspondence.
