This document, titled 2 CFR Part 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, commonly referred to as the Uniform Guidance. The Uniform Guidance was published in the Federal Register on December 26, 2013 and was effective December 26, 2014 for all federal award and pass-through federal awards (sub-awards to DHSS grantees). All procurements are based on procurement standards established in applicable OMB Circulars, state regulations, and statutes.
