About this file
This document is an instructional guide for using SAM.GOV's follow feature to receive email alerts on federal contract opportunities. The guide provides step-by-step instructions for users to set up automated notifications for any changes to contract opportunities posted on the platform. Users must first log into SAM.GOV, then search for the specific project or solicitation number using the format examples provided (such as 1244552#Q####, 1244552#R####, or 1244552#B####). After locating the contract opportunity, users click the ellipsis button (circle with three vertical dots) displayed on the contract opportunity page and select the follow option.
Once a user follows a contract opportunity, the follow link changes to "unfollow," and SAM.GOV will send email notifications whenever any changes are made to that project. The notifications are sent from donotreply@sam.gov and include a change description with a "View Details" link that directs users directly to the updated opportunity in SAM.GOV. Users should periodically check their spam or junk email folders to ensure notifications are not being filtered. To discontinue notifications, users can follow the same steps and click the unfollow option. This feature is available for any entity's projects, not limited to Forest Service solicitations.
