Step 4: Gather and Record ARRA Data at the End of the Quarter

Data gathering is a process that occurs outside of CGI Advantage. Award information includes both financial and status information for the Quarterly Award Information table. Some possible sources could be:

• Status reports from the project, grant, contract and loan managers.

• Financial data from CGI Advantage Cost Accounting, or other financial systems.

• Spreadsheets, miscellaneous reports, and other queries from various systems.

• Phone calls, e-mails, and other informal means of gathering status.

Refer to the "Quarterly Award Information" topic for more information.
