About this file

Summary

This is a Financial Components Workbook for the FTA Section 5310 program administered by the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC), the designated Area Agency on Aging for the 11-county metro Atlanta region including Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Forsyth, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry, and Rockdale counties. The workbook serves as the application and budgeting instrument for organizations seeking FTA Section 5310 funding to provide transportation services for seniors aged 65 and older and individuals with disabilities under 65. Applicants must indicate their project intent (continuing/expanding existing services or beginning new services), specify service types (demand response, fixed route, employment, dialysis, other medical, or quality of life services), identify operating days and hours, and document their vehicle fleet composition. The workbook requires applicants to provide detailed information regarding their service capacity, current ridership, anticipated service needs, volunteer programs, participation in DHS Coordinated Transportation, and demographic breakdowns of persons to be served by race and disability status.

The workbook incorporates a comprehensive budget summary requiring applicants to calculate unit costs per service type, identify the number of one-way trips or service hours to be provided, and specify total funding requests. Applicants must demonstrate their capacity to provide required matching funds and leverage grant funding to maximize program outcomes. The document includes a pre-award risk assessment tool scored on a scale of 0-255 points to evaluate contractor risk levels (Low: 0-85, Moderate: 86-170, High: 170+), assessing factors such as entity compliance history, accounting systems, program complexity, staff qualifications, prior audit findings, and timely reporting performance. Organizations deemed moderate or high risk require approval from the division director or program manager before funding allocation.

Programs with complex compliance requirements have a higher risk of non-compliance. In your determination of complexity consider whether there are complex contract/grant requirements (If you choose one item, select slightly complex; if you choose two items, select moderately complex; if you choose three or four items, select highly complex). The following are some examples of reasons a program would be considered more complex:
► Complex programmatic requirements and/or must adhere to regulations► Various types of program reports are required
► Matching funds or Maintenance of Effort are required► The entity further subcontracts out the program

m. Was the entity audited by the Federal government in the prior year(s)?0
n. If yes, did the audit result in one or more audit finding? (If answered no to 4m, leave blank)0
(Assign 5 points for each issue below (1-7) that are applicable)Briefly explain which numbers were chosen and why.
o. Other issues that may indicate high risk of non-compliance?We had no compliance issues and we have adequate systems to segregate indirect from direct
Other issues: (1) Having new or substantially changed systems or software packages, i.e. accounting, payroll, technology; (2) Turnover in personnel, i.e. business, award management, program; (3) External risks including: economic conditions, political conditions, regulatory changes; (4) Loss of license or accreditation to operate program; (5) New activities, products, or services; (6) Organizational restructuring; (7) Where indirect costs are included, does the organization have adequate systems to segregate indirect from direct costs.
5. Reporting & BudgetYes/No
Rank the entity based on your knowledge of the following:
a. Were performance reports submitted timely for prior contract/grant awards? (i.e. within the agency specified timeframe)0
b. Was reasonable progress made towards performance goals for prior contract/grant awards?0
c. Were financial reports (i.e. expenditure) submitted timely for prior contract/grant awards?0
d. Were financial reports (i.e. expenditure) accurate for prior contract/grant awards?0
e. Did the entity stay on budget in prior year(s)?0
