Does anyone have a good definition or can briefly describe to me what it means to be in a federated funding environment?
I believe this is how HHS and some other Agencies describe their environments, but I am under the assumption that it's not the normal annual appropriation.
I'm really trying to find info to get a clear understanding of what that means and how it impacts their acquisition activity.

I have seen the wording used in the context of the non-profit world but having a little trouble wrapping my head around a Federal entity like HHS using it for the funding they receive to operate the Department and the agencies of the Department. Suspect you have done an internet search on the term which I just did and did not find a reference as it relates to Federal agency funding or appropriations.

yeah, thinking it may relate more to how they manage HHS and all of its sub-departments under the big umbrella. Funding for them is annual appropriations, so I think the individual (non acquisition) is misinterpreting the terminology. (imagine that)
