What is covered under UG 200.300 Subpart D?

UG 200.300 Subpart D focuses on post-award management, which is a critical phase in the grant lifecycle. This section provides guidelines and requirements for recipients to manage their grants after the awards have been made. It clarifies the responsibilities of organizations in terms of financial management, monitoring and reporting, procurement standards, and how to manage changes in the grant terms or conditions.

Post-award management is essential for ensuring compliance with federal regulations and for achieving the intended outcomes of the grant. It involves continuous oversight and effective tracking of grant expenditures, performance goals, and reporting obligations to funders. Proper management during this phase helps in maintaining accountability and maximizing the impact of the funded activities.

While audit requirements, cost principles, and pre-award requirements are also important components of grant management and governed under different sections of the Uniform Guidance, they do not pertain specifically to the provisions laid out in Subpart D. Each of these areas has its own dedicated regulations, reinforcing the distinct focus and necessary attention that post-award management requires for the successful execution of grant programs.
