The objective of this review was to identify specific gaps in transparency in award data for federal assistance spending in response to COVID-19. We looked at 51,000 awards worth $347 billion that supported the pandemic response (as of June 15, 2021).

The report includes five recommendations to help improve the transparency into COVID-19 relief spending.
