AAAS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT THE SELECTED SUB-RECIPIENTS HAVE THE TECHNICAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE CAPABILITIES TO ACHIEVE THE PURPOSE OF THE AWARD. SOME OF THE METHODS AAAS USES TO MONITOR ITS SUB-RECIPIENTS INCLUDE: (1) ENSURING THAT SUB-RECIPIENTS ARE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE FEDERAL FUNDS; (2) PROVIDING INFORMATION TO SUB-RECIPIENTS ABOUT THE FEDERAL AWARD, INCLUDING THE CFDA NO.
