They need to be active in SAM at the time they SUBMIT an offer. If they are PREPARING an offer/writing a proposal today... as long as they are active in SAM (a fast and easy process) before they click the "send" button on that offer/proposal, they are eligible. If they are not submitting an offer TODAY, they do not need to be active in SAM TODAY.

"The proposed rule changes this language to “Prospective contractors shall be registered in the SAM database at the time an offer or quote is submitted in order to comply with the annual representations and certifications requirements (see FAR subpart 4.12).” The proposed rule further states that the Contracting Officer “Shall verify that the prospective contractor is registered in the SAM database…at the time of offer or quote submission.”
