Uniform Guidance for Federal Awards
The new Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, announced in the Federal Register in December 2014, aims to ease the administrative burden for organizations that receive federal awards while reducing the risk of waste, fraud, and abuse of the $500 billion in awards expended annually. You can find the complete, up-to-date guidance in the Electronic Code of Federal Regulations.
By consolidating eight existing Office of Management and Budget (OMB) circulars into the new uniform guidance, the OMB hopes to eliminate duplicative language so it’s clear where a policy is substantively different across entity types.
