After the Applicant submits their scope of work (if they are developing it independently), FEMA conducts a review of all documentation and validates the scope of work. If additional information is required during the review and validation, the Consolidated Resource Center will notify the Program Delivery Manager who will process the Request for Information and send the task via Grants Portal.

• For additional information on the Request for Information, please refer to the courses: IS-1018 Determination Memorandums and Appeals and IS-1002 FEMA Grants Portal - Transparency at Every Step

Once FEMA validates the scope of work, it moves through a special considerations program compliance review. The Program Delivery Manager may ask for additional documents or submit a formal Request for Information during this time as well.
