In two weeks, the Team will be attending and exhibiting at the American Council of Engineering Companies of Arizona's 2026 Roads & Streets Conference in Tucson, Arizona!

This year’s conference will bring that spirit to life with a bold new experience designed to inspire, connect, and energize transportation professionals from across the public, tribal, and private sectors. Expect dynamic conversations, innovative ideas, powerful networking opportunities, and a few surprises along the way as we blend the rich history of the Mother Road with the future of transportation in Arizona.

Will you be attending? We would love to connect!

One of the hottest topics in federal grants right now? Payment justification.
It’s no longer enough to show that a payment was made. Organizations should be prepared to demonstrate the story behind the expenditure:

✔️ What was purchased or paid for
✔️ Why the cost was necessary and reasonable
✔️ How the expense supports the federal award and approved activities
✔️ Who received the goods, services, or participant benefit
✔️ Evidence that the benefit was actually provided or received

Think beyond the invoice…

An invoice may prove what you paid for, but it doesn’t always prove why the cost was allowable, how it supported the grant, or whether the intended participant or program received the benefit.

For participant support and direct assistance, documentation might include eligibility verification, receipts, distribution logs, participant acknowledgments, case notes, service records, or other evidence appropriate to the program.
The goal: Create a clear audit trail from the federal award → approved activity → expenditure → payment → documented benefit.

This isn’t just about compliance — it’s about protection.

Strong payment documentation can mean:

• Fewer questioned costs
• Smoother monitoring and audits
• Stronger internal controls
• Better accountability for federal funds
