Award Management

Post Award Management

The Principal Investigator is responsible for the overall management of his or her sponsored project. Many times, the financial responsibility is managed on the PI’s behalf by a departmental business person. Post award management includes reconciling accounts on a repeating basis to ensure only those reasonable, allocable and allowable expenses are charged to the sponsored project, tracking the effort of key personnel, tracking the performance to ensure that the project is completed in a timely manner and ensuring that the specific award terms are followed.

Spotlight Sessions

ORA's Spotlights are one-hour long, in-depth, refresher learning sessions focused on specific topics involving the managing of sponsored funding. Spotlight sessions are held virtually and made available for on-demand viewing. Click on the link in the Video column to view a session.
