Description: CNCS is seeking approval of its Financial Management Survey. The Financial Management Survey collects information from new grantees about their financial management and internal control systems so that CNCS can determine if appropriate systems are in place to manage federal grant funds or, if not, to identify training and technical assistance a new grantee may need to develop and implement appropriate systems. CNCS requires new grantees which have never before received CNCS funds to complete the form. Completion of this survey is required as an element of CNCS's risk assessment process, but is independent from the competitive grant process.
