PURPOSE
Delay on Implementation of Procurement Threshold
POLICY
10.1 UNIFORM GUIDANCE PROCUREMENT REGULATIONS
Background
On December 26, 2013 the Office of Management and Budget(OMB) released its final
rule of"Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements
for Federal Awards." This guidance to federal agencies streamlines and supersedes
guidance that was previously contained in eight different circulars.
Non-federal entities, such as the City of Grapevine, Texas must examine and revise
their internal policies to ensure consistency with the Uniform Guidance and with
agency-specific policies.
Application
The Uniform Guidance administrative requirements and cost principleswill applyto new
and incremental funding awarded after December 26, 2014. Existing Federal awards
will continue to be governed by the terms and conditions under which they were
awarded.
Delay on Implementation of Procurement Threshold
Statement on Uniform Guidance Procurement Regulations:
On May 17, 2017, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)granted an additional
one-year delay for implementation of the procurement standards under the Uniform
Guidance in 2 CFR 200.317 to 326. The grace period now extends through December
25, 2017, meaning entities with fiscal years beginning on or after December 26, 2017,
must have procurement standards, for federal expenditures, that meet the more
stringent requirements of 2 CFR 200.317 to 326. The City has elected to delay
implementation of 2 CFR 200.317 to 326 until October 1, 2018, which corresponds to
the extension provided by OMB.
