Corporation Monitoring Planning Assessments

The Corporation is responsible for ensuring all federal resources are appropriately managed, which includes conducting monitoring visits to award recipients (e.g., grantees, cooperative agreement recipients, sponsors). The Corporation moved to a standardized system in Fiscal Year (FY) 2006 to help prioritize monitoring activities and more generally allocate Corporation resources for appropriate levels of monitoring, oversight, and technical assistance. As part of this process, we identified a standard set of criteria as being good indicators of potential programmatic or financial vulnerability in the management of federal funds, and we conduct a yearly assessment of each Corporation award using these assessment criteria.
