2.3.2.4: Subcontracts and Subgrants

Join with other Federal Agencies in plans to leverage existing reporting systems to meet requirements of the USASpending.gov Web site.

Other Information:

Subcontracts and subgrants provide the Department, and the rest of the federal government, with an additional opportunity to make available information to USASpending.gov. As with the aforementioned contracts and grants solutions, we are joining with other Federal Agencies in plans to leverage existing reporting systems to meet requirements of the USASpending.gov Web site. For subcontracts, a new module of the Electronic Subcontract Reporting System was developed to allow prime contractors to report they awarded subcontracts. For subgrants, the federal grant community is exploring the capability of leveraging the existing FederalReporting.gov Web site, used for Recovery Act reporting. Both of these efforts require federal regulations and instructions be updated to require prime contractors and awardees to accomplish required reporting before we can, in turn, submit data to USASpending.gov. As such, timeframes for implementation are not fully known at this time.
