I guess Uncle Sam got fed up with D&B's predatory licensing of DUNS IDs, so it's transitioning away. https://sam.gov/content/home Announcements:
- Oct 15 2021: Unique Entity ID (SAM) Help Resources Available In April 2022, the federal government will transition away from the use of the DUNS Number and toward the new Unique Entity ID as the primary means of entity identification for federal awards government-wide.
- Oct 15 2021: You can get a Unique Entity ID (SAM) on SAM.gov If you have a DUNS Number, but you are not registered in SAM.gov, you can get your Unique Entity ID (SAM) now. Just sign in to the site, go to the Getting Started page, and follow the instructions. You will need your DUNS Number handy. The Federal Service Desk has a list of help resources on the transition.
So the making of this prop was very timely.
Continuing the discussion from the property proposal
- There are public CSV dumps, updated monthly and daily; and more sophisticated API access
- Total of 120 fields including DUNS, SAM, CAGE, legal name, country, address, website, several person contacts; and primary and secondary NAICS code (P3224), Product and Service Code (P9954)
- 39.7% of the entities have a website (ENTITY URL), which is pretty good for matching to WD
- It's nice that they are publishing DUNS in an open way!
- The scope includes anyone who ever did business with the US government
- Currently there are 795k active entities and unknown total of expired entities (8.5k in the last 6 months alone)
- This is a very rich database: I'm looking for collaborators to match SAM entities to WD by using DUNS, name, country, website
We should start by creating a mapping model.
Looking forward to collaboration! --Vladimir Alexiev (talk) 14:03, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
@Vladimir Alexiev: I am not a competent WD user, so apologies for any errors I make here. I have previously filed a ticket over at ROR (https://github.com/ror-community/ror-roadmap/issues/203) that links GRID ([1]), UEI, CAGE, and DUNS for a certain subset of organizations. It would be nice for ROR or GRID to add direct UEI linkages, but I doubt it is on their shortlist. Adding UEI-to-WD (and/or CAGE-to-WD!) mapping would achieve a similar outcome for my purposes. Unfortunately there are multiple UEI/CAGE/DUNS triads per institution name, and it probably would be better to start from the SAM API so data could be periodically refreshed, but that's a little above my experience level. If the file at the ROR ticket would be helpful, I can add the GRID-to-WD mapping on top. Marshlight (talk) 18:45, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
