A party's failure to comply with the spirit and intent of a subcontract with a similarly situated entity may be considered a basis for debarment on the grounds, including but not limited to, that the parties have violated the terms of a Government contract or subcontract pursuant to FAR 9.406-2(b)(1)(i) (48 CFR 9.406-2(b)(1)(i)). Contracting Officers may require the contractor to demonstrate its compliance with the limitations on subcontracting at any time during the performance of the contract by having the Contractor provide invoices, copies of subcontracts, or a list of the value of tasks performed.
