Ensuring Quality Data
Assessing Methodology<br />
• Essential step in the project’s development<br />
• Preparati<strong>on</strong> is key<br />
• Anticipate potential problem areas<br />
- Address in the design phase or early as possible<br />
• Ensure c<strong>on</strong>sistency across the board<br />
• Communicate clearly with staff collecting and<br />
recording data
Where Methodology Goes Wr<strong>on</strong>g<br />
• Problems by design<br />
• Problems arising <str<strong>on</strong>g>from</str<strong>on</strong>g> human error<br />
Design<br />
Determine just where<br />
they overlap and how<br />
to eliminate, reduce,<br />
negate their effects<br />
<strong>on</strong> reporting.<br />
Human<br />
Error
Where Methodology Goes Wr<strong>on</strong>g<br />
• Fundamental design flaws<br />
• Data collecti<strong>on</strong> mechanisms<br />
• Documentati<strong>on</strong><br />
• Communicati<strong>on</strong> breakdowns
Lost, Inaccurate, or Questi<strong>on</strong>able Data<br />
What do I do if I cannot find my grant in the FSRS.gov<br />
system?<br />
Federal agencies must report all award transacti<strong>on</strong>s within 30 days<br />
of the award to USASpending.gov. Typically, the Department of<br />
Educati<strong>on</strong> (ED) submits award transacti<strong>on</strong>s to USASpending.gov <strong>on</strong><br />
the 5 th and 20 th of each m<strong>on</strong>th. If your grant was awarded prior to<br />
the 5 th , or between the 5 th and 20 th , check to see if it appears in<br />
USASpending.gov. If it does, you will be able to report in FSRS within<br />
48 hours. If it does not appear in USASpending.gov within 30 days<br />
of your award, c<strong>on</strong>tact your program officer for assistance.<br />
When in doubt, c<strong>on</strong>tact your program officer!

FAQ #1<br />
Why is reporting under the Federal<br />
Funding Accountability and Transparency<br />
Act (<strong>FFATA</strong>) required?<br />
First-tier subaward data related to Federal<br />
c<strong>on</strong>tracts and grants and executive<br />
compensati<strong>on</strong> data of these awardees must<br />
be reported, as <strong>FFATA</strong> requires that this<br />
informati<strong>on</strong> be made available to the<br />
public.
FAQ #2<br />
When will <strong>FFATA</strong> be implemented for<br />
Federal grants?<br />
For Federal grants, <strong>FFATA</strong> reporting<br />

<strong>FFATA</strong>?<br />
New Federal, n<strong>on</strong>-Recovery Act funded grant awards with<br />
an award date <strong>on</strong> or after October 1, <str<strong>on</strong>g>2010</str<strong>on</strong>g>, and resulting<br />
first-tier subawards for Federal financial assistance are<br />
subject to the reporting requirements under <strong>FFATA</strong>. For<br />
those new Federal grants as of October 1, <str<strong>on</strong>g>2010</str<strong>on</strong>g>, if the<br />
initial award is equal to or over $25,000, reporting of<br />
subaward and executive compensati<strong>on</strong> data is required.
FAQ # 3 (c<strong>on</strong>tinued)<br />
If the initial award is below $25,000 but<br />
subsequent grant modificati<strong>on</strong>s result in a<br />
total award equal to or over $25,000, the<br />
award will be subject to the reporting<br />
requirements, as of the date the award<br />
exceeds $25,000. If the initial award equals<br />
or exceeds $25,000 but funding is<br />
subsequently deobligated such that the total<br />
award amount falls below $25,000, the<br />
award c<strong>on</strong>tinues to be subject to the<br />
reporting requirements of <strong>FFATA</strong>.
FAQ # 4<br />
Under a grant, what is c<strong>on</strong>sidered a first-tier<br />
