Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act Reporting System and Instructions
The intent of the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) legislation requires information on federal awards such as federal financial assistance and expenditures be made available to the public through a single, searchable website, which is www.USASpending.gov. The FFATA Subaward Reporting System (FSRS) is the reporting tool federal prime awardees (i.e., prime contractors and prime grants recipients) use to capture and report subaward and executive compensation data regarding their first-tier subawards to meet the FFATA reporting requirements. Prime contract awardees will report against sub-contracts awarded and prime grant awardees will report against sub-grants awarded. The sub-award information is entered in FSRS.
