Based on the language in the PAPPG, I think there are no extra reps and certs just for NSF in SAM.gov, because those are still included in the proposal submission process. The Drug Free Workplace, Debarment and Suspension, Lobbying, and Nondiscrimination and Civil Rights certs have been deleted from the certs made upon submission to NSF because they're certified annually in SAM, so they were being double-certified anyway whenever a proposal was submitted. Below is pulled from the "significant changes" link:
"Chapters I.G, How to Submit Proposals, II.C.1.d, Proposal Certifications and XI.A, Non-Discrimination Statutes and Regulations have been updated to implement Office of Management and Budget Memorandum M-18-24, "Strategies to Reduce Grant Recipient Reporting Burden". Proposing organizations must submit government-wide representations and certifications in the System for Award Management (SAM). These certifications must be re-certified annually. NSF-specific proposal certifications must still be provided via the Authorized Organizational Representative function in NSF’s electronic systems. Prior exhibits in Chapter II on the Drug Free Workplace Certification, Debarment and Suspension, Lobbying and Nondiscrimination have been deleted. Reference to the Certification of Compliance/Civil Rights Certifications in Chapter XI.A.2 has been removed as Nondiscrimination Certifications will now be provided in SAM."

Hi, all,
Has anyone done the institution-wide certifications for NSF in SAM yet?
I’m on the pre-award side and therefore not too familiar with SAM. I’m assuming that I’d need to have someone assign me a role or affiliate me with the institution in SAM in order to do the certification.
Can someone offer some advice?
Thanks!
Pam
