Post Award Fiscal Compliance

PAFC's responsibilities are assisting both campus and central administrative units with information, training, and advice to mitigate the risk of non-compliance with sponsor terms and conditions. In addition, PAFC analyzes expenditure transactions on sponsored projects using data analytics to identify transactions with the highest risk of disallowance, and works with campus units to improve internal controls and reduce risk. PAFC also supports the University's effort reporting process, inlcuding the effort reporting system, ECC.
