Announces Partial Proposal Routing Procedure In September 2003, Research and Sponsored Programs (R&SP) tested a new procedure for routing partial proposals. The new procedure allowed investigators additional time to work on the narrative section of their proposal while the administrative and fiscal sections were routed and reviewed by the department chair, dean's office, and R&SP. Feedback was solicited and the majority of comments received concerning this test were positive. Therefore, R&SP will implement use of the partial proposal routing procedure effective immediately. This procedure is optional and investigators may still follow the normal procedure of routing proposals in their completed form. Some revisions and clarifications to the procedure have been made since the pilot test. Please click on Complete Details to view the specific requirements for the new procedure. IU Negotiates New Contract Language for State Agreements Indiana University, in conjunction with Purdue University, has negotiated a new contract boilerplate to be used by State of Indiana agencies when issuing contractual awards. The new language is more favorable to the universities and recognizes that some prior contract terms were inappropriate when the State was contracting to another State entity. Complete Details New Mileage Rates Indiana University Travel Management Services has announced new mileage rates effective January 1, 2004. These rates should be used in proposals immediately. Complete Details Revised NIH Grants Policy Statement The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has announced a revision to the NIH Grants Policy Statement (NIHGPS). The new NIHGPS is applicable to all NIH grants and cooperative agreements with budget periods beginning on or after December 1, 2003.
