SUBAWARDS AND CONTRACTS APPROVAL  
Note: See 2 CFR § 200.331, Subrecipient and contractor determinations, for definitions of 
subrecipient (who is awarded a subaward) versus contractor (who is awarded a contract).  
Note: Recipients with a procurement system deemed approved and accepted by the Government 
or by the AO are exempt from the requirements of this clause. See 2 CFR 200.317 through 
200.327.  
Note:  This clause is only applicable to Action Plan Grants. 
Unless described in the application and funded in the approved award, the Recipient must obtain 
prior written approval from the AO for the subaward, transfer, or contracting out of any work 
under this award above the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. This provision does not apply 
to the acquisition of supplies, material, equipment, or general support services. Approval of 
each subaward or contract is contingent upon the Recipient’s submittal of a written fair and 
reasonable price determination, and approval by the AO for each proposed contractor/sub-
recipient. Consent to enter into subawards or contracts will be issued through written 
notification from the AO or a formal amendment to the Agreement.  
The following subawards and contracts are currently approved under the Agreement by the AO. 
This list does not include supplies, material, equipment, or general support services which are 
exempt from the pre-approval requirements of this clause.  
(Fill in at award or by amendment) 
5.2 Reimbursement Requests 
(a) The Recipient may request reimbursement of costs incurred in the performance of this 
agreement if those costs do not exceed the funds available under section 2.2 and are 
allowable under the applicable cost provisions of 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Subpart E. The 
Recipient shall not request reimbursement more frequently than monthly. 
(b) The Recipient shall use the DELPHI eInvoicing System to submit requests for

incurred, including direct labor, indirect costs, other direct costs, travel, etc., and the

Recipient does not provide sufficient detail in a request for reimbursement, the AO may 
withhold processing that request until the Recipient provides sufficient detail. 
(d) The USDOT shall not reimburse costs unless the Agreement Officer’s Representative 
(the “AOR”) reviews and approves the costs to ensure that progress on this agreement 
is sufficient to substantiate payment. 
(e) The USDOT may waive the requirement that the Recipient use the DELPHI eInvoicing 
System. The Recipient may obtain waiver request forms on the DELPHI eInvoicing 
website (http://www.dot.gov/cfo/delphi-einvoicing-system.html) or by contacting the
