- Financial Oversight: Monitoring expenditures for compliance, reconciling accounts, and forecasting future spending.
- Grant Administration: Managing re-budgets, no-cost extensions, and required financial reporting.
- Compliance & Closeout: Ensuring all expenditures are allowable and preparing final financial reports.
