Collaboration is generally a good thing, and ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ has a stewardship responsibility to the federal government and other sources of grant support to ensure that collaborative grant funds are used reasonably and appropriately.<\/p>\n
If your project includes subawards to partnering institutions, our responsibility includes monitoring the grant fund use and achievement of grant project objectives. ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ employs a risk-based approach to subrecipient monitoring, and we focus more frequently and robustly on subrecipients who pose an elevated risk for non-compliance. It is ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½’s practice to request relevant information from the subrecipient and conduct the subrecipient risk assessment prior to proposal submission.<\/p>\n
Please note that a subrecipient refers to an entity that receives a subaward to carry out part of a sponsored project. It differs from a contractor that provides commercially available property or services necessary for the project\u2019s success.<\/p>\n
Outgoing subawards can be structured with either a cost-reimbursable or fixed amount payment method, depending on the determination of appropriateness.<\/p>\n
Cost-reimbursable subawards<\/strong> require Subrecipients to invoice ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ College for actual expenses incurred in the course of their performance of the statement of work, and ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ College then reimburses those costs once approved. ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ College uses cost-reimbursable subawards for projects involving theoretical or intangible deliverables.<\/p>\n Fixed amount subawards<\/strong> are based on meeting various milestones and\/or deliverables, each of which has a predetermined associated cost. ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ College requires certification in writing that the milestone and\/or deliverable was completed prior to providing payments. A fixed amount subaward must meet the requirements outlined in the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (2 CFR 200.201). Furthermore, per 2 CFR 200.332, prior written approval from a Federal sponsor is required to issue a fixed price subaward on a federal award. ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ College adheres to the federal regulations and follows the Federal Demonstration Partnership guidances and practices for the management of federal subawards.<\/p>\n If you are uncertain whether an entity should be considered a subrecipient or a contractor or what funding mechanism is right for your collaboration, please be in touch with the Office of Sponsored Programs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Collaboration is generally a good thing, and ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ has a stewardship responsibility…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":122,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_hide_ai_chatbot":false,"_ai_chatbot_style":"","associated_faculty":[],"_Page_Specific_Css":"","_bates_restrict_mod":false,"bates_author_byline_override":"","_hide_page_title":false,"_header_override":"","_template_width_override":"","_dimp_site_id":"","_dimp_override_contact":false,"_table_of_contents_display":false,"_table_of_contents_location":"","_table_of_contents_disableSticky":false,"_is_featured":false,"_sidebarChoice":"","footnotes":"","_bates_seo_meta_description":"","_bates_seo_block_robots":false,"_bates_seo_sharing_image_id":0,"_bates_seo_sharing_image_twitter_id":0,"_bates_seo_share_title":"","_bates_seo_canonical_overwrite":"","_bates_seo_twitter_template":""},"class_list":["post-913","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/grants\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/913","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/grants\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/grants\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/grants\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/122"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/grants\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=913"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/grants\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/913\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3029,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/grants\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/913\/revisions\/3029"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/grants\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=913"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
