FOR DOE MAJOR SITE/FACILITY MANAGEMENT CONTRACTOR AND DOE HEADQUARTERS AND FIELD OFFICE PERSONNEL ONLY

(Financial Assistance Recipients/Non-Major Site/Facility Management Contractors, go to www.osti.gov/elink-2413/)

Major Site/Facility Management Contractors and DOE Headquarters and Field personnel are required to obtain a user name and password to access E-Link submissions and related reports. The process to obtain a user name and password also requires the individual to select the organization they are requesting access to, as well as the level of access they wish to obtain. The combination of this information defines the type of access and various other data relationships in the system. If the requester already has already established an E-Link account, she/he may select DOE Program Offices, Field Offices, and Major Site/Facility Management Contractors to Log On.

Financial Assistance Recipients/Non-Major Site Facility Management Contractors do not need a user name and password to access or submit the Announcement Notice 241.3 and associated scientific/technical deliverable. These individuals should access the Announcement Notice 241.3.

Problems or questions associated with the Access Request process should be e-mailed to elink_Helpdesk@osti.gov. Contact Kim Buckner of OSTI at (865) 576-1228 for additional information.
