The legislation also established a separate Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.

Unique Identification Codes for Federal Contractors: DUNS Numbers and CAGE Codes

This report focuses on identification numbers for government acquisition and acquisition-related purposes that government contractors, generally, are required to have.
