--They review and approve user registrations for their region;
--They review pending reports.
47
Report Responsibility SSRs and Year End SDB reports are
accepted/rejected/reopened by the Office of Small Business Utilization – Janice Keys
ISRs and SDB Participation Reports (Optional Form 312) are accepted/rejected by the Contracting Officer (PCO or ACO) in each of GSA’s central or regional office.
DGU only reviews reports.
48
Acceptance of Reports
“Acceptance” Does not mean approval, per se, but it does mean
that the Government has reviewed the reports and that it appears to the complete.
Since an on-site compliance review later could identify flaws in the preparation of the report, the Government always has the right to reject a report that has previously been accepted.
49
Acceptance (continued)
- Once an ISR or SSR is accepted, it can be reopened at the Contracting Officer’s request or by the Prime Contractor for correction.
- The Agency Coordinator can no longer delete reports, the ISR or SSR is rejected/reopened for correction.
- The Federal Government cannot correct/change any data on the ISR/SSR.
