Figure 2. The Registration Requirements
3. Register for an Organization
Enter the correct organization’s SAM.gov UEI (Unique Entity Identifier) and CAGE code. Ensure it is the UEI and CAGE code for the Prime Entity seeking the contract award or holding the contract.
- Including the CAGE code is required if multiple codes are assigned to the UEI.
- Do not enter the UEI of a CTA ('Contractor Team Arrangement' Contractor, Subcontractor, or JV (Joint Venture) Member.
- Verify the CAGE code retrieved from SAM.gov to ensure the registration for the entity is correct.
If the displayed information is correct, select YES to continue.
Note: For incorrect registrations see Making Account Changes or Contact us for assistance. |
4. Configure the Account
Create an account and password. Select a time-based Authenticator Application or use Text Messaging for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).
If unable to complete this step, contact us for support. A confirmation page message acknowledges successful registration (see Figure 3). | Figure 3. Symphony Administrators can activate accounts once they receive this message. |
Email MFA is not an option. Users with international (non-US) phone numbers must use an authenticator app. Refer to Smartphone Apps for MFA or MFA Browser Extensions for help. |
5. Request Activation
After users successfully register, Symphony displays the SAM POC(s) on the confirmation page before an 'Active' SAM POC is identified (see Figure 4).
Figure 4. An organization without a registered Symphony Administrator will receive this list. A user seeking activation can access the Contact link to request that its SAM POC register for Symphony with the same UEI and CAGE code. | SAM POC Requirements for Activation: Once registered, contact us with the SAM.go UEI and a copy of the POC details from SAM.gov so we can verify access and activate the account. Others Users Seeking Platform Access: Users must request access to the platform directly from their organization’s Symphony administrator. User accounts are not automatically activated. No Registered Symphony Administrator:
