Ensure timely, accurate payment to subcontractors consistent with subcontract terms and pass‑through requirements. Reconcile subcontractor invoices against Lead Entity reimbursements to protect program margin and flag variances. Maintain vendor files, W‑9s, subcontract agreements, rate schedules, and payment records for audit readiness. Budgeting, Reporting & Compliance Develop and manage program budgets for all 1115 waiver‑funded activities; produce monthly budget‑to‑actual variance analysis for leadership.
