Abstract: BHW requires applicants for awards to submit a work plan that describes the timeframes and deliverables via the Standardized Work Plan (SWP) form. Applicants submit SWP forms with their grant application and then award recipients and Project officers use the SWP to assist in monitoring progress once HRSA makes the awards. The Bureau utilizes the Quarterly Progress Update (QPU) for award recipients to provide information to BHW on a quarterly basis on each activity listed in the SWP. This highly efficient system has been very successful and as a result, the Bureau is requesting an extension.
