In compliance with the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section 180.300, the university includes suspension/debarment provisions in its purchase orders. By accepting the university’s purchase order, the supplier is certifying that, to the best of its knowledge, the supplier and/or any of its principals are not suspended or debarred.
