civ_1102 Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 OMB Circular 89 Revised requires getting a CFDA number for all Federal Domestic Assistants Programs, which are defined by the circular as, " any function of a Federal agency that provides assistance or benefits for a State or States, territorial possession, county, city, other political subdivision, grouping, or instrumentality thereof; any domestic profit or nonprofit corporation, institution, or individual, other than an agency of the Federal Government. A Federal domestic assistance program may in practice be called a program, an activity, a service, a project, a process, or some other name, regardless of whether it is identified as a separate program by statute or regulation. It will be identified in terms of its legal authority, administering office, funding, purpose, benefits, and beneficiaries." If I have an assistance requirement, providing assistance overseas in theater, my interpretation would be that a CFDA # is not required because it is not a domestic assistance program. Is that interpretation correct? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vern Edwards Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 CFDA = Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance. How is this a contracting problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 In general, a CO warrant does not confer authority to award federal assistance (grants, co-ops and OT's.) -if your activity has Congressional authority to award grants, which most activities overseas do not, make sure someone with a Grants Officer warrant is backing U up.
