How Has WorkwithUSAID.org Impacted Your Organization? Has your organization explored the resources offered on WorkwithUSAID.org? Has the platform helped your organization in some way, such as increasing your organization’s capacity to be ready to compete for USAID funding, or connecting you to another organization to discuss possible sub-partnership opportunities? Please email IndustryLiaison@usaid.gov for a conversation. We’d love to hear from you!
Reminder: SAM.gov Entity Registration Delays Due to high demand, entity legal business name and address validation tickets sent to the System for Award Management (SAM) are taking longer than expected to process. The General Services Administration (GSA) team is working on tickets in the order received and have significantly increased their staff to help address issues. You can find resources related to this process here. GSA is working on updating their guidance to provide more detailed registration instructions to include visual aids. USAID partners should not create multiple incidents for the same request. If you have questions for USAID, please contact your respective Contracting or Agreement Officer (CO/AO).
