G.4 SYSTEM FOR AWARD MANAGEMENT (SAM)

The General Service Administration (GSA) Office of Governmentwide Policy is consolidating the governmentwide acquisition and award support systems into one new system – the System for Award Management (SAM). SAM is streamlining processes, eliminating the need to enter the same data multiple times, and consolidating hosting to make the process of doing business with the government more efficient.

The Entity Management functional area of SAM, formerly Central Contractor Registration (CCR), Online Representations and Certifications (ORCA), and Federal Agency Registration (FedReg), is the primary database for the U.S. Federal Government to manage information on potential government business partners or federal financial assistance recipients.

If you have previously registered your entity in CCR, ORCA, or FedReg all of your entity’s information has been brought into SAM. You just need to set up a SAM account, migrate your roles and update/renew your entity record in SAM as needed. See the following website https://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/ for more information and assistance on registering your entity in SAM. In order to be eligible for an award, potential contractors must comply with all requirements of FAR Clause 52.204-7, System for Award Management.
