1. Confirm that your company’s registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) is active. Companies must be registered for All Awards as a small business. If your registration is inactive or will expire soon, start by renewing SAM. SAM registration is valid for 1 year. Nonprofits will skip this step.
2. Open your account on CT Gateway and complete the supplier diversity renewal application.
3. Application will be reviewed and assessed for eligibility. Companies may be subject to an onsite review during the application process. State certification is valid for 2 years.

Reapplication on SAM and CT Gateway are free. Renewal steps are similar to the initial process so for application details and free assistance resources, visit Apply in 3 Steps. 

Once certified, if your company makes any organizational changes, you must communicate these changes in writing to the DAS Supplier Diversity Program Team. We will determine if the change(s) impacts your company’s certification eligibility as defined by the Connecticut General Statutes and/or applicable regulations. Failure to communicate changes may result in de-certification or denial of re-certification to the program.
