IMPORTANT NOTICE: Previously, offerors were required to register in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database and have an active registration in CCR prior to completing their Reps and Certs (Section K of the RFP) in the Online Representations and Certifications Application (ORCA) prior to award of a contract. Offerors are now required to complete their registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) database via the website https://www.sam.gov. If the offeror previously had an active CCR/ORCA account the offerors information has automatically been incorporated into the SAM database. Offerors are strongly recommended to review their information in SAM to be current and up to date.

Failure to register in SAM makes an offeror ineligible for award of DoD contracts.
