The data (name, address, Federal ID number, UEI) you provide for your organization in the System Access Portal must match the data which appears on your W-9 form and in SAM.gov. This data is validated as part of our grant management process and inconsistencies will delay your award. 

A Unique Entity ID is required to receive federally-sourced grant funds. The UEI is a 12-character alphanumeric ID assigned to an entity by SAM.gov. If you have not yet been assigned a UEI, visit SAM.gov to apply for one. Data entered in SAM.gov must match federal tax data exactly and you must opt-in for public view for DOF to validate your UEI. For more information, visit SAM.gov.

DOF cannot provide full or partial funding for individual pieces of equipment valued at $5,000 or more.
