Background:

In October 1993, the President issued a memorandum that mandated the Government reform its acquisition processes. Subsequently, the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (FASA) of 1994 was passed, requiring the establishment of a "single face to industry." To accomplish this, the DoD identified a centralized, electronic registration process known as CCR as the single point of entry for vendors that want to do business with the DoD. To this end, the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), Subpart 204.7300, requires contractors to register in the CCR to conduct business with the Department of Defense.
