Issues With New SAM.gov Website
Inability to Search Multiple Names
The first issue with the new SAM.gov is the that you can no longer search multiple entities or individuals. With the new website, you are required to search only one name at a time. For those who are required to screen a series of individuals or entities each month find themselves spending a largely increased amount of time on the website. With the old system, users were able to search multiple (4) names at the same time. Now that the number has been decreased to 1, users must search names at a multiple of 4 compared to the old system.

More Complex Dichotomy
Lack of Knowledge
The final issue that this article will cover is that there was a lack of publication and information shared regarding the website’s changes. Although there was an article posted on the old SAM.gov website about the new SAM.gov website, there still seemed be a surprise or even shock amongst those who use the website when the changes were made final. Without users having proper notice about the new SAM.gov website, they were unable to plan or adjust their screening/monitoring plans for the future.
Conclusion
The new SAM.gov website has caused issues, stress, and concern for those who become accustomed to the old system. Unfortunately, the changes have increased the amount of time it takes to complete the monitoring process without impacting the requirement to screen. Therefore, users have been put in the position where they must spend additional time each month to remain compliant. However, Exclusion Screening, LLC does offer both a full service and software only solutions to these issues. With our system, there is no limit to the number of names you can screen at a single time. Furthermore, our system allows the user to screen multiple databases at once. What this means is rather using multiple websites to fulfill the screening requirements of different lists and databases, you can actually search multiple databases such as GSA SAM, OIG LEIE, and State Medicaid lists all at once in a single location.
