What is a Closeout Report?
The closeout report plays a crucial role in documenting the outcomes and advantages derived from NASA's dedicated efforts and investments. As part of the process, PAM generates monthly reports on the 15th of each month, which are automatically delivered to the lead Agreement Managers at each Center and relevant Headquarters office. Collaborating closely with the Technical Point of Contact, the Agreement Manager ensures the completion of closeout reports within 15 days following the expiration of the agreement. These reports are conveniently submitted through NASA's Partnership Agreement Maker (PAM) system, streamlining the process for efficient and accurate reporting.
Does My Agreement Require a Close Out Report?
A close out report is required for all agreements including domestic, unclassified non reimbursable, and unclassified reimbursable agreements with waived costs. Fully reimbursed agreements do not require a close out report.
What Information Do I need to Complete a Close Out Report?
An email will automatically generate and be sent to the assigned AM with instructions on how to complete the close out report. The responses to the close-out questions below should be sufficient to describe the results from each partnership. This will take several sentences and should be completed by those most familiar with the outcome of the Agreement. For any additional questions, contact Collin Hieger.
