I think a big part of the task for accountability is actually on the org providing funding. Just giving away money and saying "be responsible" isn't really helpful. Putting onerous metric tracking obligations on recipients who are focused on shipping isn't really helpful. I think grant orgs need to have skin in the game so they become accountable to themselves.

That being said, there are basic project responsibility habits that grant orgs could lay out for recipients, like providing project/milestone/task tracking tools. What if grant orgs provided an entire suite of tools and training to help incubate their recipients into becoming more effective at shipping and tracking. Let's go even further; grant orgs could provide skilled professional services to accelerate results from their recipients. When you start focusing on provider responsibility it starts getting really interesting.

Kudos to Octant for being ahead of the curve here (unrelated to my advocating for it, but I was impressed to see it): https://warpcast.com/octant/0x376889d6
