At the top of the pyramid and applicable to all federally sponsored agreements are Federal Regulations. These regulations apply generally to all federal grants and contracts.
Specific federal agency guidelines might be more restrictive and would apply in a case where the agency guidelines conflict with more general federal guidelines.
If all other guidelines are silent on a particular issue, then the University of Washington guidelines published in the Operations Manual or the Grants Information Memorandum (GIMs) are followed.
