Description
The New Mexico Department of Finance and Administration (DFA) administers the Project Implementation Grant through the New Mexico Match Fund. It supports the administrative and management capacity needed to deliver a federally funded project already supported by a Matching Grant. This is additional support for the same project, not funding for a separate undertaking. The broader Match Fund helps New Mexico leverage federal funding for infrastructure, research, economic development, the energy transition, and other projects benefiting the state.
Implementation funding can support grant management, compliance assistance, administrative or financial staff time, financial tracking and reporting software, staff training, project coordination, recordkeeping, and monitoring. Its purpose is to help recipients manage both their federal and state awards and complete funded activities on time. It is not intended for construction materials or capital purchases.
