Identifying Indirect and Direct Costs to Maximize Negotiating Power

While there are no universal rules for classifying either direct or indirect costs associated with federal awards, your affiliated department should be following a consistent pattern to avoid double charging. The varied options for indirect cost rates, i.e. fixed or negotiated, are an important choice tribes need to consider that could ultimately affect the federal awards’ effectiveness and outcome. It could also save your organization money in the long term through cost-sharing between awards. The panelists will discuss negotiating indirect cost rates and best practices of working to get the best and honest outcome for your tribe while still fulfilling the varied grant objectives.
