If you are not registered in CCR, you will need to register in the System for Award Management (SAM). SAM is a Federal Government owned and operated free web site that consolidates the capabilities found in the old CCR/Federal Agency Registry (FedReg), the Online Representations and Certifications Application (ORCA), and the Excluded Parties List System (EPLS) websites. All records from CCR/FedReg, ORCA, and EPLS, active or expired, were moved to the SAM website. If you have a registered account in CCR, you can utilize your CCR user name and password in SAM, but only after creating a SAM account. Keep in mind that it takes 48-72 hours for the registration process in SAM to be complete. The SAM website is located at https://sam.gov/. Vendors must also request and be approved for explicit access to each solicitation in order to view the secure packages. For any additional questions or help, please visit the SAM Help Desk which can be accessed by selecting the Help Tab at the top of the SAM homepage.

The Defense Logistics Agency Energy (DLA Energy) has issued a DRAFT Request for Proposal (RFP) for the privatization of the electric, natural gas, and water distribution and wastewater collection systems at Grand Forks Air Force Base (AFB), North Dakota and Cavalier Air Force Station (AFS), North Dakota.

Please be advised that only one copy of the Technical Library will be available per company.

All vendors are required to fill out and submit the DD2345 form. Instructions for submission of that form can be found in that link as well.
