Objectives and Background
Objectives
“The goal of this reform is to deliver on the President’s directives to (1)
streamline our guidance for Federal awards to ease administrative
burden and (2) strengthen oversight over Federal funds to reduce risks of
waste, fraud, and abuse. Streamlining existing OMB guidance will
increase the efficiency and effectiveness of Federal awards to ensure
best use of the more than $500 billion expended annually….”

Background
The Development of the Reform
“This proposal reflects input from more than two years of work by the
Federal and non-Federal financial assistance community led by the
COFAR in response to the following two Presidential Directives:”
“1. February 28, 2011, Presidential Memorandum on Administrative
Flexibility, Lower Costs, and Better Results for State, Local, and Tribal
Governments …”
“2. Executive Order 13520 on Reducing Improper Payments …”

departments and agencies (agencies) best practices and innovative
ideas for transforming the delivery of this assistance. In addition, the
Council will engage relevant stakeholders across Government on key
issues to foster more efficient and effective Federal management by
coordinating the development and implementation of standardized
business processes, data standards, metrics, and information
technology.”

2 CFR 200 – What is it?
TITLE 2 of the CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS
PART 200—UNIFORM ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS, COST
PRINCIPLES, AND AUDIT REQUIREMENTS FOR FEDERAL AWARDS
2 CFR 200 – Are these new regulations?
As stated by OMB:
“To deliver on the promise of a 21st-Century government that is more
efficient, effective and transparent, the Office of Management and Budget
is streamlining the Federal government’s guidance on Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal
awards. These modifications are a key component of a larger Federal
effort to more effectively focus Federal resources on improving
performance and outcomes while ensuring the financial integrity of
taxpayer dollars in partnership with non-Federal stakeholders. This
guidance provides a governmentwide framework for grants management
which will be complemented by additional efforts to strengthen program
outcomes through innovative and effective use of grantmaking models,
performance metrics, and evaluation. This reform of OMB guidance will
reduce administrative burden for non-Federal entities receiving Federal
awards while reducing the risk of waste, fraud and abuse.”
9
2 CFR 200 – Are these new regulations?
Primarily existing regulations – “This reform streamlines the language
from eight existing OMB circulars into one consolidated set of guidance in
the code of Federal regulations. This consolidation is aimed at eliminating
duplicative or almost duplicative language in order to clarify where policy
is substantively different across types of entities, and where it is not. As a
result, the guidance includes sections and parts of sections which are
clearly delineated by the type of non-Federal entity to which they apply.”
10
2 CFR 200 – Are these new regulations?
“This final guidance does not broaden the scope of applicability from
existing government-wide requirements, affecting Federal awards to nonFederal entities including state and local governments, Indian tribes,
institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations. Parts of it
may also apply to for-profit entities in limited circumstances and to foreign
entities as described in this guidance and the Federal Acquisition
Regulation. This guidance does not change or modify any existing statute
or guidance otherwise based on any existing statute. This guidance does
not supersede any existing or future authority under law or by executive
order or the Federal Acquisition Regulation.”
