1.20.5. ATTACHMENT 5 – GUIDE FOR NCAGE AND SAM REGISTRATION

1. Background

To be eligible for an award, all prospective Offerors shall have a SAM Unique Entity ID; a Commercial and Government Entity (Cage)/North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) = (NCAGE) Code; and an active registration in System for Award Management (SAM). Refer to FAR 4.605(b).

Vendors have experienced difficulty registering in SAM. One of the most common issues is inaccurate address validation. SAM first validates that addresses entered when requesting NATO Commercial and Government Entities (NCAGE) and unique entity ID match. If SAM.gov cannot validate your entity, you can create a help ticket with the Federal Service Desk at www.fsd.gov.

NOTE: it is very important that each company/entity register with their fiscal company name and address in NCAGE as well as in SAM and without misspelling/typos. The information shall match and be exactly the same on all registrations, if not, the process will take much longer.

2. NATO Commercial and Government Entity (NCAGE) Code:

Foreign entities shall obtain a NCAGE code for each Unique Entity ID they plan to register in SAM, before starting the registration process. Make sure the name and address information provided to obtain the NCAGE code matches that of the Unique Entity ID. Allow up to three (3) business days to receive the NCAGE code.

3. Unique Entity ID

On April 4, 2022, the federal government stopped using the DUNS number to uniquely identify entities. This transition allows the government to streamline the entity identification and validation process, making it easier and less burdensome for entities to do business with the federal government. the unique entity identifier used across the federal government changed from the DUNS Number to the Unique Entity ID (generated by SAM.gov).

The Unique Entity ID is a 12-character alphanumeric ID assigned to an entity by SAM.gov.

Therefore,

a. Any entity (contractor, corporation, partnership, organization, or individual) wishing to do business with the federal government under a Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) based contract, or anyone applying for federal grants, cooperative agreements, or other forms of federal financial assistance through Grants.gov, must be registered in SAM.gov. Overseas federal acquisition awards up to $30,000 are granted an exception.

b. Current SAM.gov registrants have already been assigned their Unique Entity Identifier and can view it within SAM.gov; there is no further action required. Existing registered entities can find their Unique Entity ID by following the steps here.

c. After April 4, 2022, entities registering in SAM.gov will no longer have to go to Dun & Bradstreet and acquire a DUNS number.
