One of the most misunderstood concepts in federal grants management is indirect cost recovery. How does a federally funded organization recover costs that do not benefit a particular grant or subgrant exclusively but are nonetheless necessary for the overall operation of the recipient or subrecipient? The related policy rules now contained in OMB’s Uniform Guidance have been relatively straightforward for years. Because of how those policies interact, many RDOs still face complications as they try to get awarding agencies to bear their fair share of the costs of operating federal grant programs.
This session will drill down on the policy details and describe in practical terms how they affect the preparation and approval of indirect cost documentation and the acceptance and audit of resulting indirect cost allocation plans and rates.
