Subcontracting Plan Reporting in SAM

The Electronic Subcontracting Reporting System (eSRS.gov) retired in February 2026. All  Subcontracting reporting capabilities are now available in SAM.gov.

The Latest

• Subcontracting Plan Report (SPR) - ISR Extension for Mid-Year 2026 

The SBA issued a 30-day extension to submit the mid-year Individual Subcontracting Reports (ISR).  With this extension, ISRs will be due June 14, 2026.  

The extension was needed to make further adjustments to the Subcontracting Plan Reporting capabilities in SAM.gov.

If you have any questions, please contact the help desk at FSD.gov.

Recent Updates

• For Contractors: AI Review of “Remarks” during the ISR/SSR data entry.

The "Validate Remarks" feature on the ISR and SSR data entry forms uses an AI mechanism to review contractor-submitted Goals, Actuals, and Remarks. Subsequently, it provides feedback, including Strengths, Weaknesses, Potential Improvements, and Suggestions.

This functionality saves review time and effort. The reports still require monitoring for compliance with the Subcontracting Plan and for anomalies, discrepancies, and errors. See your agency-specific guidance on monitoring responsibilities.
