Step 6: Cost Share / Subcontract Funds

If cost share was required by the grantor or obligated voluntarily in the award proposal, a new cost share fund will need to be requested through the online Fund Maintenance System. Also, if the grantor imposes a salary cap and anyone paid on the grant is paid over that cap, a cost share fund will need to be requested. For more information on cost share, please see the Cost Share portion of the Grant Toolbox.

If the new award fund receives federal funding and there will be a subcontract executed for another entity to complete a piece of the project, a new subcontract fund will need to be established for reporting reasons. A separate fund is only needed when federal funding is received. For more information on subcontracts, please see the Subcontract section of the Award Management portion of the Grant Toolbox.
