Congratulations, you got the grant—now can you protect it? This session provides a tactical roadmap for the “heavy lifting” of post-award management, breaking down essential internal controls, and other areas of risk that impact recipients, subrecipients, and contractors.
Learning Objectives
- Operationalize 2026 Internal Controls: Implement a “Control Environment” based on the 2025 GAO Green Book.
- Highlight different areas of risk and provide solutions to address them, including subrecipient monitoring, procurements, award terminations, and implementing updated Uniform Guidance threshold changes.
- Discuss best practices in grant compliance — Q&A.
