Information for ARRA Grant Recipients
The ARRA requires that ARRA-funded grants be individually tracked to monitor each grantee’s advances and expenditures. Consequently, PMS requires the establishment of ‘P’ accounts for all grantees receiving ARRA funds to enable grant-by-grant tracking. Each ‘P’ account has associated ‘subaccounts’ that the grantor agency must establish and each subaccount represents a discrete ARRA-funded grant.
T/TAS can provide all the on-site technical assistance or training you need to help establish, manage, and monitor the required accounts for ARRA funding. To learn more, call T/TAS at 800-882-7482 or email us at ttas.info@wku.edu.
