Amendment Negotiation for new terms or new scope – OSP Contract Teams or BC negotiate and execute amendment and send an email with the Amendment to CGA Awards Group when fully executed.
OR
Amendment Execution for incremental funding, NCEs or administrative changes - CGA Awards Group reviews and fully executes amendments. Industry is handled by BC.

How do I request a No Cost Extension (NCE)?
This process can vary depending on the sponsor and the specific award terms and conditions. At a minimum, CGA Awards will need the revised end date and a technical justification for the change. CGA will countersign memos and send the request to the respective agencies for approval (or notification if the award/agency allows the grantee to approve).
