GSA's procurement and finance policies require contractors to be registered for consideration in future solicitations, awards, and payment. GSA Contracting Officers worldwide utilize CCR to identify possible sources and Financial Officers use the system to make payments. To register in CCR, vendors may use one of the following methods: (a) Call telephone number 1-888-CCR-2423 for further information; or (b) Input information directly into the CCR database through the web application at http://www.ccr.gov/. Contractors ¬must be registered in CCR prior to any contract award for any government solicitations. Contractors must also be registered in the Online Representations and Certifications Application (ORCA). The ORCA website address is http://orca.bpn.gov.
