NSLP Administrative
Reviews

Every contract is led by a dedicated Program Director and Contract Coordinator. Once the review list is received, our team develops notification templates, sponsor resources, and review tools; builds the schedule; assigns reviewers; and coordinates travel. Throughout the process, we maintain clear, consistent communication with the state through a single, streamlined point of contact.

The Administrative Review can be complex, but conducting much of the process offsite streamlines the experience for everyone involved. By collecting and reviewing documentation in advance, our team can ask targeted questions, request clarifications, and address findings early—well before arriving onsite. This proactive approach extends timelines for sponsors, encourages open communication, and ensures that onsite visits are focused, efficient, and solution-oriented.

The onsite review is where preparation meets practice. With much of the documentation already reviewed offsite, the onsite visit becomes a focused, collaborative opportunity to finalize the process. Our team uses this time to verify and discuss outstanding findings, request additional documentation as needed, and observe meal service in real time to ensure compliance and quality. At the end of the visit, reviewers meet with the sponsor to share commendations, provide technical assistance, and walk through all review findings. This approach not only builds understanding and transparency but also ensures sponsors leave with clear guidance, actionable feedback, and confidence in their program’s integrity.
