OMB Uniform Guidance
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Uniform Guidance establishes a set of principles for federal grants management determining costs applicable to grants, contracts, and other agreements with educational institutions. The principles deal with the subject of cost determination, and make no attempt to identify the circumstances or dictate the extent of agency and institutional participation in the financing of a particular project. The principles are designed to provide that the Federal Government bear its fair share of total costs, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, except where restricted or prohibited by law.
Uniform Guidance was drawn from and replaces OMB Circulars A-21, A-50, A-87, A-89, A-102, A-110, A-122, and A-133. Please click here for the full text of the OMB Uniform Guidance.
