Central Contractor Registration

Central Contractor Registration

The Central Contractor Registration (CCR) is the primary supplier database for the U.S. Federal government. The CCR collects data from suppliers, validates and stores this data, and disseminates it to various government acquisition agencies.

In October 1993, President Bill Clinton issued a memorandum that required the Government to reform its acquisition processes. Subsequently, the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994 was passed, requiring the establishment of a "single face to industry." To accomplish this, the United States Department of Defense (DoD) identified a centralized, electronic registration process known as CCR as the single point of entry for vendors that want to do business with the DoD. To this end, the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), Subpart 204.7300, required contractors to register in the CCR to conduct business with the Department of Defense.

A new Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) policy, published October 1, 2003 (Circular 2003-016, FAR case 2002-018), requires that all federal contractors register in the CCR database prior to award of any contract or purchase agreement.

BPN and CCR maintain 99.98% Uptime. Most user issues stem from DoD mandated security controls or the user's network and/or ISP not following RFC standards for internet protocols.
