Grants.gov was named as the central grant identification and application portal for federal grant programs in 2003. The Dept. of Health and Human Services (HHS) is its managing partner. As a result of funding and governance challenges -- such as untimely contributions, a lack of performance metrics, unclear lines of authority, and confusion over roles and responsibilities among Grants.gov's governance bodies -- that have adversely affected operations, this report examines: (1) key factors HHS should consider when proposing a funding model for Grants.gov; and (2) how the Grants.gov governance bodies could address Grants.gov's previously identified governance challenges. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand reort.

The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) is an independent agency that works for Congress. The GAO watches over Congress, and investigates how the federal government spends taxpayers dollars. The Comptroller General of the United States is the leader of the GAO, and is appointed to a 15-year term by the U.S. President. The GAO wants to support Congress, while at the same time doing right by the citizens of the United States. They audit, investigate, perform analyses, issue legal decisions and report anything that the government is doing. This is one of their reports.

While FG funding has been increasing, long-standing concerns remain about the fed. government's grants mgmt. and the lack of effective oversight tools to reasonably assure that FG are used for their intended purposes and that risks of fraud, waste, and abuse are minimized. The Admin. recognizes these concerns; it included improving grants mgmt. as a part of its initiative to eliminate waste in the U.S. gov't. and has various efforts underway to improve grants oversight. This testimony addresses the: (1) significance of FG funding; (2) risks and vulnerabilities in key controls in the FG life cycle; and (3) improvements needed to make the single audit process an effective accountability mechanism. Illustrations. This is a print on demand report.
