Solicitation provision calling on *contractor* to have specified state license establishes a general performance requirement, not a prerequisite for award.<p/> <p/> 2. Although agency failed to verify whether proposed awardee was registered in Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database prior to award as required by solicitation, protester was not prejudiced as a result given that, even if agency had been aware of the awardee*s lack of registration prior to award, the Federal Acquisition Regulation expressly allows contracting agency to delay award until after the awardee has registered in the CCR database, and the record shows that the awardee in fact did register in the CCR database shortly after award. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-B-294032/html/GAOREPORTS-B-294032.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-B-294032/pdf/GAOREPORTS-B-294032.pdf GAO/B-294032 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-B-294032 Comptroller General Decision GAO/B-294032; Graves Construction, Inc., B-294032, June 29, 2004;
