SYSTEM FOR AWARD MANAGEMENT (SAM) REPLACES CCR and ORCA Effective July 30th, 2012, the System for Award Management (SAM) replaces the contractor registration sites CCR and ORCA. In an effort to streamline the acquisition process, SAM.gov was established to consolidate several acquisition systems including CCR, ORCA, and EPLS and create a single repository of contractor information. As a single validated source of data on contractors doing business with the Government, the SAM database enables prospective contractors to update their information in one place. If you have been using the legacy systems CCR and ORCA, you should now go to http://www.sam.gov to find your information. Training tools are available on the SAM website to help you get familiar with SAM. Start by going to http://www.sam.gov, and then click on the SAM HELP tab. Under User Help you will find the full User Guide as well as Quick Start Guides and Helpful Hints that will help you create an account, migrate your roles from legacy systems (if applicable) and perform updates. PLEASE NOTE: SAM is completely free of charge for both registrants and users. You will be required to complete a one-time business registration, with annual updates. As a part of the registration process, you will need to provide your DUNS identification number. If you do not have a DUNS number, you may contact Dun and Bradstreet, Inc. at +1 (555) 000-0000. You may register in SAM at http://www.sam.gov. IAW FAR Parts 1, 2, 4, 13, 32, and 52 contractors must have an active profile in the SAM database prior to award of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchase agreement.
