A Designated Signature of Authority (DSA) must be uploaded to the recipient’s documents in the Transit Award Management System (TrAMS) when assigning a user access that requires a Personal Identification Number (PIN) to execute the annual certifications and assurances and to transmit, submit, or execute all applications to FTA for federal assistance (or amendments thereafter). The user roles include an official, submitter, and attorney. Please see a sample DSA linked above. The user manager must confirm the document is uploaded in TrAMS before assigning roles and should not upload the document in FACES.
