The May 29 OMB rewrite of 2 CFR Part 200 quietly rebuilds the pass-through entity compliance architecture. Proposed §200.332 strengthens subrecipient risk assessment, monitoring documentation, and remediation triggers. A new requirement mandates that every subaward be reported to SAM.gov with the reported records confirmed in performance reports — converting subaward administration from a back-office accounting function into a public-record certification regime. For the universities, state agencies, and national nonprofits that pass through more than half of their federal awards as subawards, the operational implication is a new compliance operating model that needs to be standing up by the October 1 effective date.

Here is what the change costs community-based nonprofits, pass-through subaward portfolios, SBIR Phase II direct-to-award structures, and the grant offices that have built workflows around milestone payments — and the comment-and-renegotiation strategy that has six weeks to land before July 13.
