As we approach another round of proposal submission deadlines for the summer, please remember that IU policy SPA-11-025 requires that all final administrative portions for proposals be fully routed to ORA four (4) business days prior to the sponsor deadline. We strongly encourage proposals to be routed earlier if possible.
KC Proposal Development documents received without any administrative attachments or with only a budget will be held at ORA Intake and not assigned to an ORA Grant Services Administrator (GSA) until the administrative packet is provided.
ORA will let you know if there are missing administrative documents, and the proposal will be assigned to an ORA GSA for review after those documents are received. Please note that this could result in a compliance review only or put the submission at a significantly greater risk of not being submitted if all required documents are not provided in accordance with the policy timelines.
Additionally, proposals being submitted through a sponsor system (e.g. ASSIST, Workspace, Research.gov/Fastlane, Proposal Central) should indicate the sponsor identification number in the delivery instructions. For example, ASSIST Number 125451 or Workspace ID WS00125156.
If you have questions about an upcoming submission or an assignment, please contact ORA. Thank you for your support and collaboration.
