All awards are reimbursement-based. Typically, awards of less than $250,000 will receive a purchase order, and awards of more than $250,000 will receive a contract. Contracts take longer to execute than purchase orders.

A 50% local cash match is required. There is a financial waiver process for organizations that cannot meet the required 50% match.
