Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and System for Award Management (SAM)

All applicants must register with the System for Award Management (SAM) and maintain an active SAM registration until the application process is complete. If an applicant is awarded a grant, the organization must maintain an active SAM registration throughout the life of the award. See the SAM Quick Guide for Grantees.

The SC Service Commission will not make awards to entities that do not have a valid SAM registration and Unique Entity Identifier (UEI formerly DUNS). If an applicant has not fully complied with these requirements by the time the SC Service Commission is ready to make a Federal award, the Service Commission may determine that the applicant is not qualified to receive an award and use that determination as a basis for making the grant award to another applicant.

The Unique Entity ID is generated in SAM.gov. The Unique Entity ID is assigned automatically to entities when they request a Unique Entity ID or register on SAM.gov. You can refer to the video below for more information on how to get a Unique Entity ID:
