Re: CFDA numbers and contracts Schoen, Alexander 05 Feb 2004 11:05 EST
your best bet is to ask the granting agency for the CFDA number. Send them a letter requesting this information. If a CFDA number does not exist for the program, ask them to explain this. It would be best if the request for info is in the form of a questionnaire. Leave a space for the signature of the official filling out the form. This is what you can show your auditors if they have a question. ----------------------------------------- Alexander Schoen Director, Office of Sponsored Programs Winthrop-University Hospital 222 Station Plaza North, Suite 510 Mineola, NY 11501 Phone: (516) 663-8997 Fax: (516) 663-9718 xxxxxx@winthrop.org -----Original Message----- From: Jean M.

Is there any CFDA number associated with a Federal contract (specifically, a fixed price contract from the Department of Education)? I am assuming there isn't since the contract is a procurement rather than "federal assistance." If that is the correct assumption, does anyone have a good idea of how to explain this to the firm conducting our A-133? The question of what the CFDA number is on federal contracts comes up for us each year at audit time when we are putting together our Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards.
