Fermilab’s new Supplier Portal is your one-stop shop to manage your company’s profile and participate in Fermilab’s solicitations. By using this portal, you will be able to update your company’s information, add or remove contacts, update the products and services your company offers, respond to solicitations you have been invited to, and send electronic messages to Fermilab supplier administrators and solicitations’ buyers. You can also use this portal to check your purchase orders and see if your invoices have been processed and paid.
We also plan to enable electronic payments in the future. Once we are ready to do so, you will receive specific instructions on how to update your bank information in the portal. To learn more about Supplier Portal, view our training materials on this page, read the news.
Please note: Fermi Research Alliance (FRA) requires all subcontractor employees and sub-tier subcontractors coming on to the Fermilab and South Dakota Department of Energy leased sites to comply with Real-ID requirements. For more information please go to http://fnal.gov/realid
If you have done business with Fermilab in the past five years, your company may already be registered, and you do not need to re-register. If you want to check whether your company already exists in our database, you can send your inquiry with company name and TAX ID to suppliers@fnal.gov
Please note that Federal TAX ID Number and copy of W-9 is required to complete the registration for US-based entities. If you are an individual, your Social Security Number (SSN) is your federal TAX ID. Non-US based entities should provide Tax Registration Number. If the required information is not provided, the registration cannot be approved. Please note that registration does not guarantee a subcontract award. DUNS number, ZIP+4 and congressional district are required for all the US-based companies that have been or will be awarded subcontract with Fermilab. In addition, all the Small Business entities will have to provide and maintain the information on number of employees and annual revenue (1). Completeness of your data is a necessary condition for timely subcontract award. For help with the registration check the instructions available on this website.
