The Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity System (FAPIIS) is a new one-stop, online data base of Federal contractors who have been disqualified from procuring Government contracts. It also contains information about contracting officers determinations of non-responsibility, records of contract determinations of default or fraud, and defective pricing determinations and agreements that resolved a contractor suspension or disbarment.
There is a problem however, the information contained in the data base is only available to members of Congress, Federal officials and contractors.
The Sunlight Foundation comments on this newly revealed transparency anomaly in their blog “The Data Mine”.
