99 -- SBA, OMB, GSA and DOD Revamp CCR Database to Provide Oversight and More Accurate Reporting on Small Business Federal Contracting

The contract involves the collaborative effort of the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), the General Services Administration (GSA), and the Department of Defense (DoD) to revamp the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. This modernization effort positions the SBA as the authoritative source for categorizing business types within the CCR system, particularly for 8(a) firms, SBA Certified Small Disadvantaged Businesses, and HUBZone enterprises. The updated CCR now integrates the SBA’s established size standards logic to accurately verify a company’s small business status and its eligibility as an Emerging Small Business, thereby ensuring more precise oversight and reporting related to small business federal contracting. The initiative aims to improve the accuracy and oversight of small business participation in federal contracting by leveraging these enhanced validation processes. All CCR-registered companies were previously notified about these changes, and SBA continues to provide a comprehensive FAQ to address any concerns or questions regarding the migration. The contract is associated with NAICS code 926110 and is supported by a point of contact, Carl G Jordan, a Program Analyst with the SBA’s Office of Size Standards. Further information and updates are accessible through the official SAM.gov workspace link provided in the contract documentation.
