Subgrantee Selection

Process of selecting a person, entity or organization to carry out or implement a component of a grant award.  Under the BEAD program, an Eligible Entity may initiate its competitive subgrantee selection process upon approval of its Initial Proposal and will have up to one year to conduct additional local coordination, complete the selection process, and submit a Final Proposal to NTIA. The Eligible Entity may, at this point, utilize the funding provided upon approval of the Initial Proposal (not less than 20 percent of the Eligible Entity’s total grant funds) to initiate qualifying activities.
