Recommendation Details
Text of Recommendation
Direct Brown to strengthen its policies, procedures, or internal controls for how to verify—and how to document its verification of—its subawardees’ election to use proposed indirect cost rates. This should address how Brown will ensure that the decision to use proposed indirect cost rates will not result in NSF being overcharged for indirect costs in cases when negotiated rates decrease between the date a subaward is proposed and the date a subaward is awarded, within a single Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement.
