§ 1896.18. Enforcement.
OSDS shall be responsible for the enforcement of certification denial or revocation, suspensions from contracting with the state, and the imposition of monetary penalties and/or cost recovery to the state, as follows:
(a) Certification Denial or Revocation: When a business does not meet the requirement for certification, or is no longer eligible due to a violation of Government Code section 14842, subdivision (a), Government Code section 14842.5, subdivision (a), or subdivision (a) of Military and Veterans Code section 999.9, or Public Contract Code section 10115.10, all certifications shall be denied or revoked. When denying or revoking certification, the OSDS shall provide written notice including the reasons for the denial or revocation and provide information regarding the appeal process.
(b) Suspension: A business may be suspended from state contracting activities. Suspension means a temporary debarment from bidding on or participating as a contractor, subcontractor or supplier in any state contract or project, and includes a revocation of certification unless the suspended business is not certified. When suspending a certified business from contracting activities, the OSDS shall provide a written notice of suspension and revocation including the reasons for suspension and revocation and provide information on the appeal process. The suspension and revocation shall apply to all of the principals of the businesses formed, owned, financed by, or affiliated with, one or more of those principals. Any allegation with sufficient grounds may be referred to the Attorney General for possible prosecution and imposition of civil/criminal sanctions for violation of Government Code sections 14842, subdivision (a), and 14842.5, subdivision (a). The OSDS may pursue administrative action and penalties irrespective of whether the Attorney General chooses to bring an action.
