How To Activate a Sub-Award

Grant opportunities are competitive opportunities for sub-awarding a grant, or creating an award that has the grant as a funding source. Application forms and templates can be used to create the opportunity; potential sub-recipient organizations may then apply to the opportunity for awards. Sub-awards may be created from a grant opportunity (for clients with Competitive Award Management) or from a grant as a sub-award.

For more information on creating, publishing, and managing opportunities, see the Competitive Award Management Guide.
