All work performed pursuant to Attachment A must be performed on or before the completion date of the Agreement, and the subsequent sixty-day period merely allows the Grantee to finalize invoices and backup documentation to support the final payment request.

The Payment Request Summary Form shall be accompanied by supporting documentation and other requirements as follows for each deliverable: i. Contractual (Subcontractors) — Reimbursement requests for payments to subcontractors must be substantiated by copies of invoices with backup documentation identical to that required from the Grantee. Subcontracts which involve payments for direct salaries shall clearly identify the personnel involved, salary rate per hour, and hours spent on the project.

If the Department determines that multipliers charged by any subcontractor exceeded the rates supported by audit, the Grantee shall be required to reimburse such funds to the Department within thirty (30) calendar days of written notification. Interest on the excessive charges shall be calculated based on the prevailing rate used by the State Board of Administration. For fixed-price (vendor) subcontracts, the following provisions shall apply: a.

The Grantee may request approval from the Department to award a fixed-price subcontract resulting from procurement methods other than those identified in the paragraph above. In this instance, the Grantee shall request the advance written approval from the Department's Grant Manager of the fixed price negotiated by the Grantee. The letter of request shall be supported by a detailed budget and Scope of Services to be performed by the subcontractor. Upon receipt of the Department Grant Manager's approval of the fixed-price amount, the Grantee may proceed in finalizing the fixed-price subcontract. C. All subcontracts are subject to the provisions of paragraph 12 and any other appropriate provisions of this Agreement which affect subcontracting activities. E. In addition to the invoicing requirements contained in paragraphs 3.C. and D. above, the Department will periodically request proof of a transaction (invoice, payroll register, etc.) to evaluate the appropriateness of costs to the Agreement pursuant to State and Federal guidelines (including cost allocation guidelines), as appropriate. This information, when requested, must be provided within thirty (30) calendar days of such request. The Grantee may also be required to submit a cost allocation plan to the Department in support of its multipliers (overhead, indirect, general administrative costs, and fringe benefits).
