About this file
This is a Pre-Award Risk Questionnaire for subrecipients under the American Rescue Plan of 2021 (ARPA) administered by Harris County in Texas. The document serves as an informational tool to be completed by subrecipients before entering into a subagreement with the County for work under the ARPA grant. The questionnaire is required by the Department of the Treasury in accordance with 31 CFR 35 and will be used by County program staff to assess organizational risk and determine any conditions or assistance to be included in the subagreement. The form collects information regarding the subrecipient's organization type, DUNS number, and fiscal year, and requires completion by the appropriate organizational representative with contact information.
The questionnaire is organized into five primary sections that evaluate organizational capacity and risk: Performance History, which covers prior federal award experience and revenue dependence on federal funding; Management Systems and Personnel, which addresses grant management experience, staffing changes, and capacity to comply with federal regulations including 2 CFR 200; Audit Reports and Findings, which documents recent audits or monitoring visits and unresolved findings; and Financial Stability, which assesses accounting systems and fund segregation capabilities. The document explicitly states that no predetermined answers will automatically disqualify an organization from consideration for an award, and there is a comments section allowing organizations to provide additional information or request technical assistance for areas where capacity is limited or non-existent.
