EHBs KB for Grantees

Page tree

This module has been made available as of April 25, 2024. 

Introduction

This user guide describes the steps Health Center Controlled Networks (HCCN), National Training and Technical Assistance Partners (NTTAP), and Primary Care Association (PCA) award recipients must follow to revise your Project Work Plan (PWP) in response to a PWP modification request from Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA).

Background

HCCN, NTTAP, and PCA Project Work Plans (PWPs) describe the project objectives, how they will be attained by the end of the project period, and the activities to be implemented. The PWP Management module allows HCCN, NTTAP, and PCA Project Officers to initiate PWP modification requests for their assigned award recipients. Awardees can then modify their existing Project Work Plans and return them to HRSA for review and approval.

PWP Modifications are post-award activities initiated by HRSA for the existing project work plans. The project work plans from the awarded Competitive or Non-Competing Continuation (NCC) applications become available in the PWP Management module after the award. Any approved changes made to the work plan through PWP Modifications are subsequently reflected in the NCC Progress Update form.
