Alternatives to DUNS #s

The federal acquisition councils are looking for an alternative to the longtime “DUNS” identifying numbers for corporate entities, according to a Federal Register notice. The DUNS proprietary system is managed and controlled by Dun & Bradstreet.

Under the proposed rulemaking, federal databases would no longer include references to DUNS numbers in regulations.

The government will explore alternatives to DUNS identifiers to be completed in fiscal 2017.
