How do I handle having subawards or subcontracts in my proposal?
Each subaward should be properly identified in your prime budget; subgrants are collaborative efforts and subcontracts are procurement of services. For a subgrant, you should have a separate budget, budget justification, scope of work and letter of commitment signed by the subgrant institution and reflecting the approved subgrant indirect cost. You should be aware that the federal agencies will require the same information of the subgrant’s Principle Investigator as is required of the UALR PI. For subcontracts, you should also submit a separate budget, budget justification, scope of work or services to be performed and a letter of commitment .Additional costing or pricing documentation may be necessary depending on the program announcement for the specific project. You should involve the Office of Purchasing in any discussion of possible subcontracts included in your proposal to ensure a smooth transition upon award. Please note that UALR will charge indirect cost on the first $25,000
