Common use of Contract Suspension Clause in Contracts

Contract Suspension. When a Contractor is alleged to have violated ethical standards according to the CRC Code of Professional Ethics or the ACA Code of Ethics identified in this contract and/or legal standards applicable to the treatment of individuals and claims for payments of public funds, the Contractor will be placed on temporary suspension pending the outcome of an investigation. Depending on the severity of the allegation(s) (i.e. Involving the individual(s) welfare), DRS will suspend new referrals and remove all individuals currently receiving services. For allegations not involving the welfare of the individual(s), DRS will suspend new referrals and individuals in current service status will remain with the Contractor, pending the outcome of the investigation. If the allegation(s) involves a Contractor’s staff, DRS requires the Contractor to take immediate and appropriate action and notify the ESS TA of action taken in writing. If appropriate action is not taken, the Contractor is subject to suspension of the contract. In the event of a contract suspension, the DRS will send written notice transmitted via certified mail to the Contractor, and suspend the contract effective upon receipt of notice or at 5:00 PM on the fifth (5th) calendar day from the date DRS mailed the notice, whichever occurs first.
