Notice of Procurement Process Changes (effective July 1, 2018) due to Uniform Guidance

Funds affected:

Federal and Federal flow-through dollars.

Uniform Guidance Overview

Uniform Guidance (“UG”) is a set of regulations (located at 2 CFR 200) that consolidates federal guidelines impacting research administration. Per the OMB website, this guidance “supersedes and streamlines requirements from OMB Circulars A-21, A-87, A-110, and A-122 (which have been placed in 2 C.F.R. Parts 220, 225, 215, and 230); Circulars A-89, A-102, and A-133; and the guidance in Circular A-50 on Single Audit Act follow-up.”

Impact to the 太阳城娱乐 Community

Since 太阳城娱乐 has previously followed State/BOG regulations, changes to procurement practices should be minimal. 太阳城娱乐 Procurement has partnered with the Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) to collaboratively communicate and coordinate the execution of this new requirement. The new regulation became effective on July 1, 2018 and affects all purchases with federal and federal flow-through dollars. As of August 14, 2019, 太阳城娱乐’s micro purchase threshold (MPT) is $20,000 which will impact the “two-quote” requirement for purchases with these funds.

Any questions about this and other UG requirements should be directed to sponsoredprograms@fau.edu.

Fraudulent Purchase Order Attempts

Here are some common traits or themes we have found that may assist you in identifying fraudulent requests:

  • The email message may be poorly written, withmisspellings and awkward sentence structure.
  • The sender's email address or URL may resemble 太阳城娱乐’sdomain name (太阳城娱乐.EDU)
  • The message may request shipment of products to anon-太阳城娱乐 address. Valid 太阳城娱乐 shipping addresses are:
