Looking for any processes or procedures anyone has in place to ensure they do not issue contracts, POs, checks, etc. to vendors who are on a federal or state debarred list from Infor/Lawson.  This is an example of the federal list:  http://www.gsaig.gov/inde...ent-listed-by-state/  Anyone use any web services?  Extract data, send it to a vendor, get it back with debarred vendors noted, load it back into Lawson, then what? Thanks in advance.  Paul Hogrefe - City of Saint Paul ERP Technology Manager

Our vendors are "vetted" against such lists prior to be added to Lawson and then annually. If they are found, they are inactivated and flagged to our Legal department who can issue settlements as needed. It's more Corporate Compliance and AP than Supply Chain for us - but if you want, you can send me an email (kvila@mhs.net) and I'll put you in touch with the people who actually run the comparisons and change Lawson status and when.

We verify that the vendor is not on the OIG list as well prior to adding to Lawson. I don't believe we do any rechecks afterward. We also use a third party credentialing service-Vendormate. The service monitors financial and legal health for those vendors that have reps that come onsite.
