The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has issued the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (2 CFR Part 200), referred to as the Uniform Guidance. The new guidance consolidates, streamlines and supersedes eight existing OMB Circulars, including Circulars A-21, A-110 and A-133. The Uniform Guidance applies to new awards and existing awards receiving incremental funding on or after December 26, 2014 as determined by Federal funding agencies. This webpage will provide information on the Uniform Guidance implementation and will be regularly updated as new information becomes available.
