Is it difficult to get a CAGE Code?

That is why many entities elect to use a service like USBRI to assist with a fast and easy registration process.

How many NAICS Codes should be on a SAM Registration?

When choosing NAICS Codes for your SAM Registration, it’s important to identify your Primary NAICS Code first. Then the ideal amount of NAICS Codes is normally 3-5, with some having as many as 10 codes. A mistake many smaller businesses make is choosing too many codes. When Contracting Officers/Prime Vendors/etc. are viewing registered businesses, if one cannot easily see what a business specializes in, they will most likely be skipped over and an entity that clearly displays their area of expertise will be chosen over such other records.

Use our NAICS Code look up tool to find your business’s NAICS code. Also use the SAM Status Lookup Tool to determine the status and the NAICS codes of your SAM Registration.
