           DOING BUSINESS WITH THE AIR FORCE



Step 1: Register to Do Business with the Federal Government

3 basic steps that a small business or minority institution must take to sell their
  products or services to the US Air Force.
 Small business or minority institution needs to be a registered contractor in the
    Federal Government's Central Contractor Registration (CCR).
 CCR Website (www.ccr.gov)
 Must be registered in CCR prior to the award of a contract vehicle
 To register in CCR, a firm must have a Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS)
   number. The DUNS Number is assigned by Dun & Bradstreet, Inc. (D&B) to identify
   unique business entities.
 During the DUNS® and CCR registration processes, you will be asked for NAICS
   codes, CAGE codes, and EIN. If you need assistance in finding any of them, use
   the resources below.
