Sec. 2909.105  Procedures.

    Before awarding a contract, the contracting officer must make a 
written determination of the otherwise successful bidder's/offeror's 
responsibility in accordance with FAR 9.105. In addition to past 
performance information, the contracting officer must insure that the 
proposed contractor, and any subcontractor representing more than 
$25,000 in goods or services, does not appear in the ``List of Parties 
Excluded from Federal Procurement'' (available on the Internet at 
www.epls.gov). In addition, contracting officers should base

company's ``Summary or Financial Report'' from Dun & Bradstreet 
(available on the Internet for a fee at http://www.dnb.com/).
