4	What happens in the black box that is DAS review and DOJ review for contracts before execution? What steps take place? What are the purposes behind these reviews?	Address w/DOJ specific memo
5	It would be helpful to have clear outlines of where these two processes overlap
6	How do state department's assess in put to output ratios/ assess capacity of contractor for outputs/outcomes?	When making requirements for minimum service delivery and maximum funding allowed what calculations are used to determine final requirements and funding distribution in the contract or grant agreement? For ongoing contracts or grants, is inflation and COLA for wage specifically calculated into the next FY agency budget requests?	Do you have a standard formula you use to determine amount of services or outcomes you expect to get per dollar of funding?
7	How do the agencies determine admin rates to pull from legislative allocations when given by legislature? What does the process look like? What needs are being addressed?

Do you have the administrative authority to implement this if you wanted to?
9	Could grantees be invited to help write RFPs?	Are potential grantees invited to co-create RFPs?
10	It seems funders have a vested interest in complicating grant applications (self preservation?) so how do we accomplish any of this without addressing this issue?	Do you use standarized templates for grant applications?
11	Focus on "what" they want to buy not "how" to achieve it - that would allow greater flexibility in implementing and covering costs	Do you request funding based on outcomes to be achieved?	Or is funding based on some other calculation?
12	Why does the state not allow no profit employees into OHA for health insurance?
13	Where are funding allocations decided? Which staff do this?
14	Why are some procurement processes and admin processes not centralized across all departments?
15	Let nonprofits write their own budgets without a per person/student spending limitation	Why would you reject a nonprofit's submitted budget?	Do you stipluate how much is allowed to be spent on wages in a contract or grant agreement, or an approved budget for a contract or agreement?
