What do you need to have before registering in SAM?
Your legal business name, TIN, banking details, NAICS codes, and a clear capability narrative describing your services.
Before registering in SAM.gov, you need your legal business name, physical address, and Taxpayer Identification Number, along with banking details for electronic payments. You should also identify your primary and secondary NAICS codes, core service offerings, and a clear capability narrative so your SAM profile tells buyers exactly what you sell.
GovCon in a Box simplifies this prep work with AI tools that generate tailored keywords, NAICS recommendations, and a strong capability statement framework before you ever start the SAM wizard. That foundation, combined with our free Federal Visibility Score, ensures that when you complete registration you are not just "in SAM" but positioned to be found, contacted, and invited into real federal opportunities.
