(b)                    						            If practical,	the contracting officer shall modify the contract or agreement awarded	under paragraph (a)(3) of this section to require SAM registration.                                          (c)                    						            Contracting	officers shall use the legal business name or "doing business as"	name and physical address from the contractor's SAM registration	for the provided unique entity identifier to identify the contractor	in section A of the contract schedule, similar sections of non-uniform	contract formats and agreements, and all corresponding forms and	data exchanges. Contracting officers shall make no changes to the	data retrieved from SAM.                                          (d)                                                         (1)                                                                           (i)                                										                    If a contractor	has legally changed its business name or "doing business as" name	(whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets	used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary	requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in  subpart  42.12, the	contractor is required to provide the responsible contracting officer	a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention	to change the name in SAM, comply with the requirements of  subpart  42.12, and	agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the	responsible contracting officer. Along with the notification, the	contractor is required to provide the contracting officer sufficient	documentation to support the legally changed name.                                                                              (ii)                                										                    If the	contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (d)(1)(i)	of the clause at  52.204-13,	System for Award Management Maintenance, or fails to perform the	agreement at  52.204-13, paragraph (d)(1)(i)(C),	and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name	agreement, the SAM information that shows the contractor to be other	than the contractor indicated in the contract will be considered	to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension	of Payment" paragraph of the EFT clause of the contract.                                                                                                           (2)                          								                The contractor	shall not change the name or address for electronic funds transfer	payments (EFT) or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record	to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see  subpart  32.8, Assignment	of Claims).                                                            (3)                          								                Assignees	shall be separately registered in SAM. Information provided to the	contractor’s SAM record that indicates payments, including those	made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that contractor	will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning	of the "Suspension of payment" paragraph of the EFT clause of the	contract.    **Parent topic:**  Subpart 4.11 - System for Award Management
