3 Training Objectives Learn why the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the California Department of Education (CDE) are focused on procurement regulations Understand what procurement documents are required Identify the components to include in written procurement documents Learn what to expect in future Administrative Reviews (AR) for agencies in California

4 Why Focus On Procurement?

5 Procurement Oversig ht 2013 Office of Inspector General audit 2014 USDA begins development of Local Agency Procurement Tool 2015 USDA procurement trainings for state agencies and issuance of procurement policy memo 2016 Began training agencies on procurement

6 Getting the Word Out Conference sessions Procurement Web page: Webinars: California Mandatory Training:

7 Action Items Agencies are required to: 1) Develop a written code of conduct 2) Comply with Subpart D, Procurement Standards, in Title 2, Code of Federal Regulations (2 CFR), sections ) Develop written procurement procedures

8 California Off-site Procurement Review o Assess whether the agency has the two required written procurement documents 1. Written Code of Conduct 2. Written Procurement Procedures

9 Written Code of Conduct

10 Written Code of Conduct Agencies receiving federal awards must maintain written standards of conduct covering conflicts of interest and governing the actions of its employees engaged in the selection, award, and administration of contracts. Standards of Conduct = Code of Conduct 2 CFR, Section (c)(1)

11 Code of Conduct Applies to... All employees, officers, or agents engaged in the selection, award, and administration of contracts

12 Importance of Written Code of Conduct Protects employees from engaging in unethical and unallowable behavior Provides for disciplinary actions to be applied for violations Protects agency s reputation

13 Conflict of Interest No employee, officer, or agent should be involved in the procurement process if they have a real or apparent conflict of interest. 2 CFR, Section (c)(1)

14 Conflict of Interest A... conflict of interest would arise when the employee, officer, or agent, or any member of his or her immediate family, his or her partner, or any organization which employs or is about to employ any of the parties indicated, has a financial or other interest in or a tangible personal benefit from a firm considered for a contract. 2 CFR, Section (c)(1) CDE MB CNP

15

16 Real versus Apparent (Perceived) Conflicts of Interest Real professional judgement is compromised because of a financial or tangible personal benefit Apparent a reasonable person would think that the professional s judgment is likely to be compromised

17 Conflict of Interest? Scenario One Bob Jones is the Program Director for a child care agency. He awarded a one year contract to his brother who owns a company which vends meals.

18 Conflict of Interest? This is a real conflict of interest.

19 Conflict of Interest? Scenario Two Sue Lee is the Director for a child care agency. She regularly has lunch with her childhood friend, the owner of a vended meals company, but always pays for her own lunch. She followed proper procurement procedures and awarded the vending contract to her friend.

20 Conflict of Interest? This is an apparent (perceived) conflict of interest.

21 Activity #1: Conflict of Interest Scenarios

22 Activity #1: Conflict of Interest Scenarios 1. Get into groups of 2-4 people 2. Think of a potential conflict of interest scenario 3. Write it on index card 4. Determine if real, apparent, or no conflict of interest 5. Choose reporter to share scenario 6. Group discussion: real, apparent, or not a conflict of interest

23 Disciplinary Action for Violations The code of conduct must provide for disciplinary actions to be applied for violations of these standards. Examples of disciplinary actions include: Verbal warning or written reprimand Fines Suspension or termination 2 CFR, Section (c)(1)

24 Soliciting Gifts is Prohibited The officers, employees, and agents of the non-federal entity must neither solicit nor accept gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value from contractors or parties of subcontracts. 2 CFR, Section (c)(1)

25 Gratuities, Favors, or Gifts Non-Federal entities may set standards for situations in which the financial interest is not substantial or the gift is an unsolicited item of nominal value. 2 CFR, Section (c)(1)

26 Example: Setting a Standard for Gifts of Nominal Value The ABC Child Care agency allows its employees, officers, and agents to accept up to $10 per calendar year, per vendor, for unsolicited gifts.

27 Allowable or Unallowable? Tiffany Jones, Preschool Director Code of conduct allows employees to accept up to $25 in unsolicited gifts per year Paul Smart, owner of Tasty Meals (vendor), sends Tiffany: A box of candy (worth $20) Baseball game tickets (worth $200) Is Tiffany allowed to accept these gifts?

28 Answer #1 The box of candy (worth $20) is allowable because her code of conduct allows this.

29 Answer #2 Baseball game tickets (worth $200) are not allowable.

30 What is Your Agency s Policy? Does your agency have a policy that allows employees to accept gifts? Do you know the amount ( standard ) that you can accept? Does your agency have a policy that prohibits employees from accepting gifts? What are the pros and cons of allowing employees to accept gifts of minimal value?

31 Organizational Conflicts of Interest Agencies that have parent, affiliate, or subsidiary organizations that are not a government agency or Indian tribe must address organizational conflicts of interest. Agencies must ensure that they are and appear to be impartial in conducting all program-related procurement. 2 CFR, Section (c)(2)

32 Political Reform Act Government Agencies The code of conduct must: Identify officials and employees within the agency who make government decisions based on the positions they hold Disclose their financial interests Form 700 Visit the California Fair Political Practices Commission Web page at

33 Summary of Components to Include Conflicts of interest (required) Define a conflict of interest Ensure staff with a conflict of interest do not participate in contract-related activities Disciplinary action (required) Include disciplinary action for code of conduct violations Gratuities, favors, and gifts (required) Ensure applicable staff do not solicit gifts from contractors Address whether staff are allowed to accept gifts of nominal value or not; if allowed, include the nominal value

34 Summary of Components to Include Organizational conflicts of interest (if applicable) Ensure ability to be impartial if conducting a procurement transaction involving a related organization Statement of Economic Interest (if applicable) Ensure public employees who make or influence governmental decisions submit Statement of Economic Interest, Form 700

35 Activity #2: Writing a Code of Conduct

36 Activity #2: Writing a Code of Conduct 1. Get into groups of 2-4 people 2. Read the regulations 3. Read the list of items to consider 4. Discuss with the group 5. Write language for this component

37 Possible Language for Gratuities, Favors, and Gifts The ABC Child Care Agency s employees, officers, directors, volunteers, or agents shall never solicit and may only accept gratuities, gifts, consulting fees, trips, favors, or anything having a monetary value in excess of $25 dollars annually per vendor, potential vendor, or from the family or employees of a vendor, potential vendor, or bidder.

38 Next Steps Does my agency have a written code of conduct? If no, develop a written code of conduct. If yes, does the code of conduct include all the required components or are revisions required?

39 Train designated staff on the code of conduct Consider obtaining signatures from designated employees Determine if you need approval by the governing board

66 Exceptions to Buy American Product not produced or manufactured in the U.S. in sufficient and reasonable quantities of satisfactory quality Competitive bids reveal the cost of the U.S. product is significantly higher than nondomestic products. USDA Policy Memo SP

67 California On-site Reviews Visual inspection of agricultural commodity labels in on-site and offsite storage facilities Four categories: o Dry o Canned o Refrigerated o Frozen

68 Summary of Procurement Procedures Written procurement procedures are a federal requirement Procurement procedures are unique to each agency Purchases must comply with standards to ensure all transactions are in compliance with federal, state, and local rules

69 Activity #4: Writing Procurement Procedures

70 Micropurchase Standard Procurement by micropurchase is the acquisition of supplies or services, the aggregate dollar amount of which does not exceed the micropurchase threshold. To the extent practicable, the non-federal entity must distribute micropurchases equitably among qualified suppliers. Micro-purchases may be awarded without soliciting competitive quotations if the non-federal entity considers the price to be reasonable. 2 CFR, Section (a)

71 Writing Procurement Procedures 1. Form groups of 2-4 people 2. Read standard (regulations), requirements, and considerations 3. Write procedures for micropurchases 4. Share with group

72 Sample: Micropurchase Procedures Micropurchases will be used to purchase goods and services that are needed on an emergency basis, for special or last minute catering events, or for items needed only occasionally. When micropurchasing procedures are used, the following conditions, stipulations, and terms will be met: The aggregate value of the single transaction is equal to or below $3500 including tax, delivery, and all other costs. The purchasing agent considers the price to be reasonable based on prior experience. The determination that the price is reasonable is documented and included in the procurement file. Prices found on the Internet can be used to verify that the price the agency is paying is reasonable. Micropurchases are equally distributed among qualified suppliers. A qualified supplier is defined as a supplier who will accept the agency s credit card and is located within ten miles of the agency. For emergency equipment repair, repair work will be distributed among vendors who are familiar with the brand of equipment the agency uses, is authorized to work on that brand by the manufacturer, and can respond within 24 hours.

73 Session Summary The USDA and the CDE are focused on procurement regulations due to need for oversight to ensure proper procurement practices Agencies are required by federal regulations to have a written code of conduct and procurement procedures which must follow procurement standards Future AR for agencies in California will include an on-site and off-site procurement review during the same cycle as the scheduled AR
