What Exactly is SAM Registration?

SAM Registration (System for Award Management) is essential for businesses, non-profits, and government contractors aiming to work with the U.S. federal government. It centralizes multiple federal procurement systems, requiring entities to obtain a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and comply with federal standards. Registration is mandatory to bid on and receive federal contracts, and entities must regularly update their information to stay active and eligible.

Potential Consequences of Not Having a SAM

Not having SAM registration can severely impact your business’s ability to bid on federal contracts, grants, and cooperative agreements, leading to missed revenue opportunities. Without  the registration, you also risk reduced visibility to federal agencies and prime contractors, which can result in missed subcontracting opportunities and a competitive disadvantage. Additionally, engaging in federal contracting without proper registration can lead to non-compliance penalties and delayed payments, affecting your cash flow.

SAM registration is crucial for maintaining your business’s credibility and reputation, as it signifies compliance with federal standards. It also ensures access to vital funding through federal grants and financial assistance programs. USBRI provides comprehensive services to complete and maintain your SAM registration accurately, positioning your business for success in the federal marketplace.

The Importance of SBA Small Business Certifications

Posted on by Noah King

Securing government contracts can transform a small business. A key step in this process is obtaining SBA (Small Business Administration) small business certifications. These certifications not only open doors to federal contracts but also level the playing field for small businesses to compete with larger corporations.

Key SBA Certifications

  1. 8(a) Business Development Program: For businesses owned by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, offering access to sole-source contracts.
  2. Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Program: Empowers women entrepreneurs with access to federal contracts set aside for women-owned businesses.
  3. Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) Program: Provides an edge in federal contracting for businesses owned by veterans with service-related disabilities.
  4. HUBZone Program: Supports businesses in historically underutilized business zones (HUBZone’s), stimulating economic growth through federal contracts. Use the HUBZone Map Lookup Tool to determine if you, your employees, and principal office is located in a HUBZone.

The Personal Capabilities Statement

A Personal Capabilities Statement is crucial for businesses seeking SBA certifications. Having one in place will:

  • Showcases Expertise: Highlights skills and experience.
  • Builds Credibility: Demonstrates professionalism and readiness.
  • Facilitates Networking: Serves as a leave-behind document at events.

Use the Small Business Calculator Tool to determine if your business is eligible for a Set-Aside or Small Business Certification

Who qualifies as SBA?

Posted on by Noah King

Who qualifies for a SBA Small Business or Set-Aside Certification?

Companies and individual that qualify for SBA Certifications must meet the SBA Small Business Size Standards. To find out if you company meets the requirements, use the Small Business Calculator Tool here and determine your eligibility.

Why is SBA Certification necessary?

Having a Small Business Certification or Set-Aside Certification is not necessary if you are NOT looking to grow your business ventures. A Small Business Certification will ensure you are up against a much smaller pool of competition when it comes to bidding on federal contracts. If you are looking to expand your business and guarantee more federal contracting opportunities, USBRI highly recommends you obtain a Small Business Certification.

What is required?

While meeting the SBA’s Small Business Size Standards is important, having a SAM Registration is vital to having that Small Business Certification.
