"Understanding the Strings Attached to Your Federal Funding Award"
REGISTER HERECentral Contractor Registration switching to System for Award Management
August 1, 2012 / Ed Jameson / Blog Posts
The CCR or “Central Contractor Registration” was a site that a contractor was required to register with in order to be awarded contracts/grants and get paid . Recently, the government has shut down the CCR and opened a new site called SAM.Gov or “System for Award Management” site, which serves the same purpose – a contractor/grantee needs to register on the site in order to get paid. Uncle SAM has decided to consolidate from several different agency registration sites to one central site.
The www.ccr.gov> site should bring the contractor directly to the www.sam.gov website instead – however it’s currently down for maintenance…..
Contractors/Grantees should beware that there is a site called “US Federal Contractor Registration” that looks like CCR but is not – it has no affiliation with any government agency and there are complaints that have been registered with the BBB – see below:
