Description

NOTICE TO FIRMS INTERESTED IN STATE DEPARTMENT CONTRACTS -- CENTRAL CONTRACTOR REGISTRATION COMING: All firms interested in doing business with the U.S. Department of State are advised that as of October 1, 2002, they will be required to register with the Department of Defense's Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. As part of a Government-wide initiative mandated by the Office of Management and Budget, all Federal contractors at any agency must register with CCR. Registration is done on the Internet at www.ccr.gov. Among other things, the system captures the DUNS +4 number and bank account information. Contractors are encouraged to register in the CCR now, well in advance of the deadline, to avoid registration difficulties. Additional guidance is planned as this initiative progresses. It is expected that implementation of CCR will further e-Government progress and, in the future, streamline the process of competing for and being paid under Federal contracts. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION. DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS NOTICE. INSTEAD, REGISTER WITH CCR.
