GREAT Act Grant Reporting Efficiency and Agreements Transparency Act of 2018

AI Summary

This bill, the Grant Reporting Efficiency and Agreements Transparency (GREAT) Act of 2018, aims to modernize federal grant reporting by creating data standards for the information that grant recipients must report to the government. It requires the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to designate a standard-setting agency to establish government-wide data standards, including standard definitions and unique identifiers, for grant reporting. The bill also directs OMB to issue guidance for agencies to apply these data standards, consolidate grant information into a single public dataset, and publish this data as open data, while protecting personally identifiable and sensitive information.
