Become a SLAC supplier
Partner with SLAC
The Procurement Group manages suppliers, supports small business growth, and buys goods and services according to government rules and SLAC's policies. Stanford University operates SLAC for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
Therefore, SLAC must report all purchasing activity to the DOE. SLAC strives to contract with the best suppliers, so we’ve made registering to be a supplier with SLAC as simple as possible.
Once suppliers have completed the Prospective Supplier Information Form(s), they will be listed in a searchable database which all SLAC employees can access.
DISCLAIMER
Completing the Prospective Supplier Information Form(s) process does not imply a solicitation or contract award guarantee by SLAC or any associated entities.

Completing Supplier Registration
Below is detailed information on completing each of the three steps in SLAC’s supplier registration process.
SAM Registration
All SLAC suppliers must create and maintain a U.S. Government System for Award Management (SAM) Account on SAM.gov, the official U.S. Government system for contract opportunities and data. Registrations are valid for up to one year from the date of registration.
If awarded a SLAC purchase order, suppliers must maintain their SAM.gov registrations for the purchase order or contract duration.
Registration Fees are not required.
There is NO FEE to register with SAM.gov or to maintain your registration.
SAM.gov registration and renewal is entirely FREE, regardless of entity type. The U.S. Government does not charge registration fees; support for completing your registration is also free.
Please be highly wary of any person or business offering to help you finish or activate your registration.
Read this article on SAM.gov for more information about fraudulent fees.
