OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET

2 CFR Part 200


Guidance for Reporting and Use of Information Concerning 
Recipient Integrity and Performance; Corrections

AGENCY: Executive Office of the President, Office of Management and 
Budget.

ACTION: Correcting amendments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is correcting the 
final guidance that appeared in the Federal Register on July 22, 2015 
(80 FR 43301). OMB is amending the guidance to make technical 
corrections where necessary. The final guidance is revised to reflect 
that due to the 14 day delay of the publically available information 
entered into the OMB-designated integrity and performance system 
accessible through SAM (currently the Federal Awardee Performance and 
Integrity Information System (FAPIIS)), Federal awarding agencies 
should review the non-public segment of the system when conducting 
their risk review as described in the guidance. This will ensure that 
Federal awarding agencies have the most current information available 
when completing the review.

DATES: Effective date: November 9, 2015.
    The applicability date of the final guidance remains January 1, 
2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rhea Hubbard, Office of Federal 
Financial Management, [email protected], or via telephone at (202) 
395-3993.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 22, 2015 (80 FR 43301), OMB issued a 
number of changes to Title 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations (2 CFR 
part 180 and 2 CFR part 200). These changes provided guidance to 
Federal agencies to implement Section 872 of the Duncan Hunter National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009. As Section 872 
required, OMB and the General Services Administration (GSA) have 
established an integrity and performance system that includes 
governmentwide data with specified information related to the integrity 
and performance of entities awarded Federal grants and contracts. This 
is the second set of corrections. The first set of corrections was 
published in the Federal Register on July 30, 2015 (80 FR 45395) to 
advance the effective date to July 30, 2015 and reflect that the 
applicability date is January 1, 2016. This set of corrections reflects 
that Federal awarding agencies should check the non-public segment of 
the OMB-designated integrity and performance system accessible through 
SAM when conducting their risk review.

List of Subjects in 2 CFR Part 200

    Accounting, Auditing, Colleges and universities, State and local 
governments, Grant programs, Grants administration, Hospitals, Indians,
