Out with the DUNS, In with the UEI: GSA Announces Transition Deadline for April 2022
Client Alert | 1 min read | 08.10.21
On July 28, 2021, the GSA shared a blog post on its outreach site, GSA Interact, announcing the final transition deadline of April 4, 2022, from using the 9-digit Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS number) to the new 12-digit alphanumeric Unique Entity ID (UEI) codes in SAM.gov. On that date, no new DUNS numbers will be issued, and only the new UEI will be provided in SAM.gov data and reports. All entities already registered in SAM.gov have been assigned a UEI, which is viewable in the entity registration record in SAM.gov. Contractors should prepare their own internal systems and processes to accept the new UEI numbers and to stop using the DUNS number for federal awards processes by April 2022.

On October 23rd, the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) sent a letter to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) containing an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (“ANOPR”) with principles for all large load interconnections across the US, including those co-located with generating facilities.[1] Significantly, the Secretary of Energy states that the interconnection of large loads to the transmission system “falls squarely” within FERC’s jurisdiction, thus weighing in on a dispute that has been pending before FERC for over a year. This move appears to be a reaction to the continued pendency before FERC of the colocation dockets[2] and a technical conference on colocation held almost a year ago.[3]
