About this file

This is a SAM.Gov registration guidance document applicable to the Boulder County Housing Department's Community Development Block Grant – Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) Mobile Home Replacement Program in Colorado. The file provides step-by-step instructions for entities seeking to register with SAM.Gov to become eligible for government contracts. The registration process involves creating an individual account, registering a new entity, completing core data sections including business information and financial details, completing assertions regarding goods and services, submitting representations and certifications, and designating points of contact. SAM.Gov registration is free and becomes active within three to five business days following IRS validation of the taxpayer identification number (TIN).

Prior to registering in SAM.Gov, entities must obtain a DUNS number from Dun & Bradstreet, which takes one to two business days and is available at no cost through the federal government portal. Entities must also provide their TIN, which for sole proprietors may be a Social Security Number if an Employer Identification Number (EIN) is unavailable. Activation of a new EIN with the Internal Revenue Service requires two to five weeks. The document references the SAM User Guide and the SAM Help Desk for additional support. Boulder County's procurement inquiries can be directed to procurement@bouldercounty.gov.

Your Entity’s DUNS Number You need a DUNS to register your entity in SAM.

• If you do not have a DUNS number, you can request a DUNS number for free by visiting D&B at http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform

• It takes 1-2 business days to obtain a DUNS.

Your Entity’s Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)

You need your entity’s Tax ID Number (TIN) and taxpayer name (as it appears on your last tax return). Foreign entities that do not pay employees within the U.S. do not need to provide a TIN.

• A TIN is an Employer Identification Number (EIN) assigned by the

Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

• Sole proprietors may use their Social Security Number (SSN) assigned by the Social Security Administration (SSA) if they do not have a TIN, but please be advised it will not be treated as privacy act data in SAM.

• To obtain an EIN visit:

www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=102767,00.html

• Activating a new EIN with the IRS takes 2-5 weeks.

“Entity.”
