Grant Cost Recovery Bridge

Quantify the gap between the true infrastructure cost a nonprofit incurs to deliver a grant and the maximum indirect cost recovery the funder allows.

Grant Cost Recovery Bridge

See how much of a grant's true indirect cost is recovered, and how cost-base eligibility and reimbursement-rate limits change the unrestricted support required to deliver the grant.

About this diagnostic

Compare the indirect infrastructure cost required to deliver a grant with the amount recoverable under the grant's applicable cost base and indirect reimbursement rate. The bridge separates unrecovered indirect cost into the effect of cost-base eligibility and the effect of the reimbursement rate. Use comparable cost bases and the rate applicable to the specific grant or funding agreement. For more information, visit our Nonprofit Consulting practice.
