The reviews are in, and your proposal is being awarded! Your award notification will be reviewed, negotiated, and accepted by IU’s Office of Research Administration (ORA), which signs sponsored agreements on behalf of the university.
Awards in all their various forms (e.g. Notice of Grant Award, letter, agreement) are normally received by ORA. If an award is sent directly to you, please forward it to ORA at iuaward@iu.edu for review and acceptance.
ORA is responsible for the review and negotiation of all awards received from external sponsors. Here is a sampling of items that are reviewed on behalf of you and Indiana University:
As the principal investigator/project director, you may be asked to review the agreement to ensure the statement of work in the agreement is accurate. If the amount of the award does not match the approved budget submitted with the proposal, you will be asked to prepare a revised budget. An ORA contract officer may consult with you about additional terms that require your approval.
You can track the status of recently received awards in Grants Management Toolkit (GMT). After your award is accepted on behalf of the university, an account number is created for your project and an award summary distributed to you, the account manager, and account supervisor.
