Adding Team Members/CTAs

Symphony defines a Team Member as two or more companies forming a partnership or joint venture to act as a potential prime contractor. (An instructional video on this topic is also available at the bottom of the page).  

• A Team Member can also be a potential prime contractor agreeing with one or more other companies to have them act as its subcontractors under a specified Government contract or acquisition program.
• Team Members are not the company users (see Managing Other Business Users). 

1. Go to Team Members 

1. Starting in My Company, select the Team Member tab. 
   • The Prime Company is first on the list.
2. Click +New Team Member to add team members to the company assets (see Figure 1). 
3. When complete, assign the Team Members to projects/past performance or proposals.

Figure 2. Selecting the Team Member's Type and searching by their SAM.gov UEI

Searches use the SAM.gov Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) to verify the Team Members are eligible to participate in government contracts. 

• Enter the correct SAM UEI for the Team Member.
   
• The Cage code field is optional unless a UEI has multiple cage codes.
   
• Based on the details displayed, Confirm or Try again.
   
• Symphony does not refresh Team Member SAM data.

3. Provide Teaming Data

Claim the Team Member’s Business Factors and upload the supporting documents (see Figure 3).
