Abstract

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) guidance on computer matching, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is providing notice of a modified matching program. Pursuant to the Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019, SBA is modifying a matching program consisting of the computerized comparison of systems of records for benefits programs at SBA with the U.S. Department of Treasury's Do Not Pay (DNP) Working System, which is administered by Treasury's Bureau of the Fiscal Service. This modified matching program will enable the SBA programs listed in the appendix of this notice to compare records maintained in their respective systems of records with records maintained in the DNP Working System for the purposes of identifying and preventing improper payments and conducting any related recovery activities by verifying through DNP prepayment or pre-award eligibility.
