to Appear in the R&SP Communicator

Proposal
Pointers
Subcontracts/Cooperative
Agreements
When a single project involves more than one institution, the grant or
contract is normally awarded to only one, with the other institution(s)
participating through a cooperative agreement, or subcontract. This situation
occurs when a portion of the technical or programmatic part of the project
is performed by at least one institution other than the grantee. Cooperating
(non-grantee) institutions are to be involved in the actual performance
of the project activity, rather than merely providing a support service
such as data processing, equipment repair, or construction.
DEFINITION: A subcontract results from the
assignment of some portion of the technical or programmatic part of a
project to another organization (or institution); usually involves a transfer
of $2,500 or more. Individuals do not qualify as subcontractors.
Steps to be implemented when Indiana University
is the grantee/contractor:
- The project director is to obtain the
subcontractor's proposal for inclusion in the Indiana University proposal
to the funding agency. The subcontractor's proposal must, at a minimum,
include:
- A statement of work or activities
to be performed by the subcontractor
- A budget, including subcontractor's
direct and indirect costs
- Various certifications and a copy
of the subcontractor's indirect cost agreement may be required on
some occasions
- The subcontractor's proposal must have
been processed within its own organization in accordance with that organization's
normal procedures and must have an authorized organizational signature
affixed.
Note: The subcontractor's proposal must
have been received by Indiana University prior to transmittal of the Indiana
University proposal to the funding agency.
- The total cost of the subcontract, including
subcontractor's indirect cost, is included in the "contractual"
or "other" category of the primary (Indiana University) budget
Steps to be implemented when Indiana University
is the subcontractor:
- The proposal for Indiana University's
portion of a project is prepared and routed through the University in
the same manner as any other proposal
- The proposal is submitted by Research
and Sponsored Programs to the organization, which is to submit the primary
application. The organization submitting the primary application becomes
the funding agency for Indiana University

Pointers future subject, send an e-mail to RSPCOMMU@iupui.edu.
