When making grant awards or contracts to non-profit organizations, the DC government will honor an unexpired federal Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement (NICRA) or a similar rate negotiated with another DC government agency in the last two years.
If a grantee organization does not have a negotiated indirect cost rate, that grantee may assign 10% of all direct costs in its award to indirect costs.
Alternatively, a grantee may elect to negotiate a new indirect cost rate with the DC government - or seek out an independent DC Certified Public Accountant to calculate an indirect cost rate using the Office of Management and Budget guidelines.
The applicant may include these indirect costs in the budget calculation and identify the basis for the calculation in supporting materials.
