INFORMATION RESOURCES ON HOW TO REGISTER TO BE ELIGIBLE AS A CONTRACTOR WITH THE US GOVERNMENT
In order to do business with the US Government as a contractor, a company must be registered with the System for Award Management (SAM, www.sam.gov). In order to register on SAM, a company must obtain a NCAGE code and a “Unique Entity ID” number (UEI). You can apply for an NCAGE code and a UEI number simultaneously, but both must be obtained in order to register on SAM. The USACE Europe District has completed an Online Industry Day presentation that offers useful information for companies interested in doing business with us on design and construction projects, and it is posted to the USACE Europe District website at the following web link: https://www.nau.usace.army.mil/Business-With-Us/Contracting/Industry-Event/. The online presentation contains detailed information on how to register to do contract work for the US Government, how to read and understand a USACE solicitation, and how to do construction work for the USACE. You’ll notice the page has a few main features:
- A narrated video presentation with useful information for design and construction firms interested in doing business with the USACE Europe District (the video itself is housed on YouTube).
- A downloadable Adobe PDF version of the presentation—this is the same material but it is small enough to email in most cases, and is in copy/paste format and with live hyperlinks throughout.
- A link to SAM.gov where many Europe District Contract Opportunities can be found.
- An invitation to submit questions. There will be a FAQ page linked there as questions come in.
- A link to a vendor registration form. This is the easiest way for vendors to get on distribution lists for contract announcements. The direct web link to the registration form is as follows: https://www.nau.usace.army.mil/Business-With-Us/Register-for-the-vendor-database/
SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO REGISTER TO BE ELIGIBLE AS A CONTRACTOR WITH THE US GOVERNMENT:
- NCAGE Code. An NCAGE code is a five-character ID number used by the US Government to identify international companies. All non-US firms must obtain an NCAGE code.

- Unique Entity ID (UEI): Go to https://sam.gov/content/home and click on “Get Started” under “Register your Entity”. UEI has replaced the DUNS number in many ways and business entities will need one in order to register on SAM.gov and to do business with the US Government: GSAFSD Tier 0 Knowledge Base - Unique Entity ID
- SAM Registration. The System for Award Management (SAM) is a registration database required for all US Federal Government Contracts and where you will find contract opportunities all over the world.
