Common SAM Registration Mistakes
Jan 7, 2016 10:08:15 AM / by USFCR
Companies who complete their System for Award Management (SAM) Registration on their own often make mistakes and/or omit necessary information. These mistakes and omissions can delay the processing of an application or even cause the application to be outright rejected. A delayed or rejected application can cause you to miss out on contracts and opportunities, not to mention cost you even more time while you try to identify and correct the mistakes.
We've compiled below a list of the most common mistakes companies make. If you're not receiving your fair share of government contracts, then speak with a Contracting Specialist at (866) 216-5343.
Federal contractors must report their service contracts, known as SCRs, through the System for Award Management. By law, executive agencies must prepare an annual inventory of their SCRs per Section 743(a) of Division C of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2010 (Pub. L. 111-117).
Contractors subject to the SCR requirement must provide the following information:
The Small Business Administration (SBA) Acquisition Division and the National Woman's Business Council (NWBC) intend to procure a Purchase Order for Research on Women's Participation in Incubators and Accelerators.
This solicitation is a request for quotation (RFQ). The period of performance for services is for one year of performance. The NAICS classification is 541990 All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services. The small business size standard is $15M.
