Day of deadline PAF must come finalized. Did not meet College deadline policy Research Administrator or PI must contact through a phone

conversation (not leaving a voicemail message) with College and DRDA alerting to the exception request

PI must submit a message with PAF stating reason for late submission. College will NOT review but may allow "expedited submission" without

signing the PAF based on PI reason for lateness For expedited submissions proposal will return for College signature

after-the-fact. The Associate Dean will determine at that point if PAF is to be signed or proposal withdrawn.

After two unapproved "day of deadline" submissions College will NOT forward proposal without the Chair requesting exception.

PI assumes responsibility if proposal does not make it to sponsor.

Page 22: 1 eRPM was born March 30, 2009  LSA had a phased implementation 3/30/2009 Natural Sciences and Psychology 4/27/2009 Social Sciences

If PAF comes to the College and it is not finalized the PAF will be returned to the department

Explanation from PI is required if the PAF comes to College the day before or the day the proposal is due to the sponsor.

The Associate Dean is reviewing all PAF’s that we receive on the day they are due to the sponsor.

Other Schools as Administrative Home on proposals with LSA FacultyThe College of LSA will adhere to the deadline policy of the PI’s administrative home, and will work with schools so that they adhere to our policy when our College is the administrative home.  Cost SharingLSA Cost Sharing requests are due two weeks prior to sponsor deadline through eGIF with the proposal in final format. Any request not received at least one week prior to sponsor deadline will not be considered.

Prime Sponsor versus Direct Sponsor DeadlineFor subcontracts the eRPM sponsor deadline should reflect the Direct Sponsor deadline not the Prime Sponsor deadline. A note should be inserted making it clear which deadline is for the Direct Sponsor.

Electronic Systems (eRPM)(PAF Questions / LSA Instruction – UM Key Personnel)

UM Key Personnel

Adding UM Key Personnel has two main steps: 1. Add the person. You must click SAVE. 2. Add Appointments for the person. Click the help link to learn more http://www.umich.edu/~eresinfo/erpm/add_help/2_3.htmlhttp://orsp.umich.edu/proposals/principal_investigator.html

LSA Instructions - This is where you can give the PI permission to edit the PAF and attachments—its their PAF so not a bad idea to give lead PI edit rights.

Make sure your Key Personnel are PI eligible or see next slides for exceptions.

Add future appointment for personnel in eRPM if personnel does not have an appointment where they will be paid or if personnel effort is not the same in all years of the project.

Electronic Systems (eRPM)(PAF Questions / LSA Instruction – Ineligible Job Code)

Ineligible Job Code Commentshttp://orsp.umich.edu/proposals/principal_investigator.html

LSA Instructions - If you are selecting someone to serve as PI who is not PI eligible please note why you are requesting the exception (contact Steve or Peggy if doesn’t meet situations below, request may be needed from the Chair.)

GSRA’s, Research Fellows, or staff are generally not include as personnel on the PAF.

GSRA’s or Research Fellows can be listed as Sponsor PI on the PAF if they are sponsor PI.

In LSA Michigan Society Fellows and Math Rotators are PI eligible.

No HR appt. needed for new faculty submitting proposal before arrival unless making expenditures.

Non-faculty investigators (ie staff, GSRA, Research Fellows) employees who are listed in a NIH proposal as Senior Key Personnel who need to disclose in M-Inform can be listed on the PAF as Non-faculty investigators.

Page 36: 1 eRPM was born March 30, 2009  LSA had a phased implementation 3/30/2009 Natural Sciences and Psychology 4/27/2009 Social Sciences

36

Just because they’re listed on the sponsor form that way doesn’t make it right for the PAF

Read the sponsor guidelines. Sponsor may not allow them to be list as PI or COPI even though that’s where the faculty has put them

Fellowships or student specific grants like NSF Doctorial Dissertations are examples where a student or fellow may be referred to as a PI. Faculty member is UM Principal Investigator on PAF and the student is UM Sponsor PI on PAF.

Electronic Systems (eRPM)(PAF Questions / LSA Instruction – Subproject/Grant Details)

Subproject/Grant Details

Formerly known as Page 4 of the ePAF. Optional - May not be required by some units. The purpose of this page of the worksheet is to help identify and estimate subaccounts for applications that involve multiple units. Designed for completion at the proposal preparation and routing stage, it sets forth a tentative distribution of award funds among the participating units. The budget arrangements are subject to change, based on the actual award and subsequent negotiations, and are not considered final. It does, however, provide a useful planning guide for anticipated financial responsibilities and distribution. To the extent possible, sections of this page of the worksheet should be completed by the UM Principal Investigator and acknowledged by each participating unit that is party to the proposal. Tip: You can look up departments in the Blue Pages - Unit Heads/Administrators Listings. WARNING - Add and Clear buttons work on the whole section not individual fields. After entering subproject details for a Dept ID, click Add to save. After adding details for a Dept ID, you have the option Edit or Delete.

LSA Instructions LSA requires an internal budget and justification even if not required by sponsor.

• Please make sure identify any internal documents as such and that they should not be sent to the sponsor.

• The attachment should be loaded into the PAF documents NOT the Proposal documents.

• Add banner across document that internal only.

Comment Example

PI will sign PAF asap. Dawn and Dr. Kennedy, this is a 50K max cost, 2-year proposal, with 10% IDC per sponsor guidelines. This is only for Corey to supervise a GSRA and materials. The sponsor does not need to see a detailed budget in the proposal at this time, per their guidelines. We have included the usual internal detailed budget in PAF Documents. $45,455 Directs + $4545 IDC = 50K total costs. Thank you.

eRPM - What does the department’s signature mean?• That the department supports the PI carrying out the

research as proposed in the budget• That the departmental equipment and other resources shown

as contributed by unit/s are approved. • If there is new equipment, the unit will/has work/worked with

facilities to coordinate needs.• That the proposed research complies to the best of unit’s

ability with Sponsor, College, and Department rules.

Who Can Sign for Department?The Chair or Associate Chair are the designated signers. The person signing should represent the department for research, space, and resources.  

The department should have a business process where chair delegates signature authority when they are unavailable.

Manage Unit Data (MUD) screens are available for each proposal and that information can only be seen in eRPM by those with access rights.

All of the information stored in the MUD screens is kept in Pathways and can be pulled from there through Business Objects by anyone at U with Pathways access.

Instructions for computing data stored in MUD can be found on the 8/3/11 meeting at https://sharepoint.umich.edu/lsa/dean/research/Lists/Calendar/Research%20Admin%20Mtgs.aspx

Process for Tracking and Communicating Computing

Research Administrator uses eResearch Proposal Management System (eRPM) to add additional information so the Department and College can track computing in Proposals and Awards.

Manage Unit Data (MUD) screens are available for each proposal and that information can only be seen in eRPM by those with access rights.

All of the information stored in the MUD screens is kept in Pathways and can be pulled from there through Business Objects by anyone at U with Pathways access.
