The uniform reporting system for Federal assistance is a set of standard forms and procedures for communicating plans and reporting the conduct and results of DOE assisted activities. Recipients of DOE grants and parties to DOE cooperative agreements are required to provide DOE with the necessary minimum level of information, through the use of selected forms, to enable DOE to carry out its fiscal accountability and program responsibilities. b. Reporting Objectives. Both planning and performance information is provided to the DOE program manager through submission of the selected plans and reports. Planning data depicted in the baseline planning forms provide a summary level cost and schedule baseline against which performance data can be compared to ensure the responsible administration of Federal assistance programs. Performance data collected provide measures of program status and results achieved. C. Reporting Requirements. The scope and level of detail of baseline information and the frequency and nature of performance reporting have been determined by the program manager. Proposed reporting requirements are identified in the solicitation. Copies of the baseline plan forms required for this program also are included as part of the application package. The final selection of required reports will be specified in the "Federal Assistance Reporting Checklist" incorporated in the award instrument. The determination of the reports required was made in consideration of the type of activity being assisted, the duration and complexity of the anticipated effort, probable amount of award funding, and relevant Office of Management and Budget guidelines.
