Partnerships on contract pages

Tip: On any Federal contract page, scroll to the Partnerships tab. SamSearch suggests companies whose NAICS codes and certifications align with that specific opportunity — filtered to your bid strategy needs.
This is a separate entry point to the same partner data as the Partnerships directory — useful when you already have a contract in hand and need teammates fast.

  3. Copy UEI and CAGE from the profile page for teaming paperwork
