When the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) crafted uniform rules for oversight of subrecipients of federal grants, they wisely limited the number of features that are mandatory. They recognized that many federal programs are designed to have scores or even hundreds of subrecipients — many with differing capabilities. And the substance of the funded activities often differ widely.
So, the rules are silent about some elements of subaward relationships, leaving them to the discretion of pass-through entities. That means that pass-through entities must build on some minimum requirements to manage and monitor subrecipients “as necessary” to assure accountability and performance.
This webinar has been designed to help pass-through entities:
- Implement and defend “differential accountability”
- Effectively comply with financial and performance reporting
- Vet subrecipient organizations and staff
- Prepare compliant terms and conditions for subaward agreements
- Required features
- “Nice to haves”
- Clarify policies on payments to subrecipients
- Understand explicit restrictions on subrecipient reporting burden
- Verify subrecipient single audits
- Compel subrecipient correction of deficiencies
- Offering technical assistance
- Understand the use — and abuse — of site visits
- Detect and eliminate duplicative oversight
- Safely step away from “the way we’ve always done it”
