9. Projects will be bid out following federal procurement regulations. One such regulation is that all contractors must be registered in the federal System for Award Management (SAM). You do not need to provide evidence of SAM registration when returning this application, but you would need to complete the SAM registration prior to bidding on a project. Registering for SAM is a fairly straightforward no-cost online process, and we can assist with the registration.
