Database Clean Up Overview

We want your CERT-certified firm to be contacted when entities are looking to share opportunities. We have learned that inaccurate contact information is a frustration for those trying to find businesses and that some CERT-certified businesses were unaware that they have not kept their contact information on the main CERT Portal pages up to date. 

The Central (CERT) Certification Program is seeking to ensure that all information within the database is up to date. To do this, we are requesting that each certified firm respond to our request to confirm their information in the system is accurate and up to date. The CERT Program may conduct a periodic review of all certified firms within CERT database. Once a business is certified, it does have a continuing obligation to report any change in circumstances that would cause it not to meet the eligibility requirements for certification. Businesses must also inform CERT of any material change in their information in the database, such as contact information or NAICS codes.

We understand that business owners are very busy and the process of getting certified takes time. With that in mind, we are seeking to make this process as easy as possible for you. Please review our FAQ here or resources on how to respond here.
