Viewing Your Company's Profile
In FedConnect, when you sign in as a vendor representative you can view your company's profile which includes general company information, users, address, PSC/FSC codes, and NAICS codes. You use the Company Info page, the Users page, the Address page, the PSC/FSC page, and the NAICS page to access this information.
Note
If you are a vendor administrator, then you can edit the information on the Company Info, and Users pages.
If you are a vendor representative, then the information on the Company Info and User pages are read-only.
The Address, PSC/FSC, and NAICS pages are always read-only regardless of your user role.
About the Company Info Page
The Company Info page enables you to update basic information about your company in FedConnect. On this page you can update your company's info from the SAM database, and you can view and/or update the following information:
- Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) System for Award Management (SAM) number

- Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Indicator
- Commercial and Government Entity number (CAGE number)
- Notification method

Updating from SAM
Only a vendor administrator can update from SAM. When you click Update Company from SAM, this updates all of the relevant data about your company. The CAGE number that displays on the Company Info page is replaced with the most recent CAGE number from your company profile at SAM. In addition, your company's address, PSC/FSC codes, and NAICS codes are updated with the most recent information from SAM as well.
Setting Your Company's Email Notification Method
Only a vendor administrator can determine whether FedConnect sends email notifications about opportunities, awards, and other alerts to a central email address for your company (for instance, to a distribution list email), to the email addresses of individual users at your company, to both, or to neither.
When you set your company's email notification method, keep the following in mind:
-
Select Company Email Address if you want FedConnect to send email notifications to a central email address. If you select Company Email Address, then the Company Email field displays, where you must type the email address where you want all of your company's FedConnect-related correspondence to be sent.
-
Select Individual User Email Address if you want FedConnect to send email notifications to the email addresses of individual users at your company. If you select Individual User Email Address, then individual users at your company will receive FedConnect-related correspondence at the email addresses established in their user profiles.
-
Select Both if you want FedConnect to send email notifications to both a central email address, as well as to the email addresses of individual users at your company. If you select Both, then the Company Email field displays, where you must type the email address where you want all of your company's FedConnect-related correspondence to be sent.
-
Select None if you do not want to receive FedConnect-related correspondence via email at your company. If you select None, then users at your company can still read their messages in the Message Center.
Changing Your Company's Contact Information, PSC/FSC Code, and/or NAICS Code
Only a vendor administrator can change your company's contact information.
To do this, you must first update your company's profile, PSC/FSC code, and/or NAICS code with SAM. Once you have done so in SAM, sign in to FedConnect, and click Update Company from SAM on the Company Info page.
About the Users Page
The Users page displays a list of the users from your company who have access to FedConnect as either a vendor representative or a vendor administrator. From the Users page vendor administrators can also access the Add User page, the Admin Tools page, the User Info page, and the Notifications page, all of which are related to vendor user data in FedConnect. The search feature is the only function available to a vendor representative on the Users page.
