    All vendors must be in good standing with the Secretary of the State for their prospective state.

    Federal Funds  

    If federal funds are used to purchase the product/service, the Department must verify against the System for Award Management (SAM) [https://www.sam.gov] provided by the General Services Administration (GSA) that the potential awardee is not on the list of individuals, entities, and contractors excluded from Federal procurement and sales programs, non-procurement programs and financial and non-financial benefits. If the potential awardee is found on the list, an award cannot be made to the potential awardee. Documentation of the search results may include a screen print(s) of the applicable SAM search results screen.

    SAM.GOV Requirement
    Prior to all bid submittals, as well as purchases where federal funds are used, vendors must register with the System for Award Management (SAM) or have an active registration with SAM.

    The System for Award Management (SAM) is the official registration required prior to bidding on a contract with any federal government agency, including local governments who receive federal funds.

    Registering online is accomplished on the SAM website www.sam.gov.

    Information concerning the process can be found in the "Guide to SAM Registration" below.  The District does not offer any support with the www.sam.gov registration process.
