Grantees that use grant funds to contract for services must develop and include in the contract provisions to monitor each contract that is for more than $10,000 per year. These provisions must include specific actions to be taken if the grantee discovers that the contractor's performance does not meet the operational or performance terms of the contract. In the case of contracts for public defender offices and managed assigned counsel programs, these provisions must include a review of utilization and activity, reporting of financial data to evaluate the contractor's performance within the budget required by statute for such programs. Commission staff must review each contract at least once every two years and notify the grantee if it is not sufficient.
