Our team can answer questions and provide guidance as you prepare the statement of work, budget, export control, forms, agreements, and any other materials required by the company.* 

Internal Approvals via eRouting

Once your proposal package is ready, submit it to the eRouting system managed by the Office of Sponsored Programs. This system automatically routes the proposal through all necessary internal approvals, including export control.

Once completed, the system forwards the proposal to our office. We must receive it at least 3 business days before the sponsor’s deadline (or at least 5 business days in advance for international research).

What Happens Next

After reviewing the proposal package, our office will:

• Submit the proposal to the sponsor
• Negotiate the agreement terms and conditions
• Execute the contract, working with you to:
  • Ensure funds awarded match the proposed budget
  • Verify any special terms or conditions
• Handle any issues that arise during the contract (e.g., cost sharing, subcontracts)
