Sponsored Projects Principal Investigator Dashboard
Northern Arizona University Office of Sponsored Projects (OSP) in collaboration with Institutional Research and Analysis (IRA) and Information and Technology Services (ITS) is pleased to announce The Sponsored Projects Principal Investigator Dashboard (“PI Dashboard”).
Purpose of the Sponsored Projects Principal Investigator (PI) Dashboard?
Development of the PI Dashboard was conceived via frequent inquires received by OSP, including input from Principal Investigator/Program Directors, who desired a tool to access their sponsored projects budgetary information.

May 26, 2020
Effective May 26, 2020, new Proposal Submission Guidelines (memo from the Vice President for Research)* will be implemented to further improve services and practices provided by the Office of Sponsored Projects (OSP).

Many federal funding agencies are revising their instructions regarding the disclosure of Other/Current and Pending Support. The agencies require similar, though not uniform, information and provide somewhat ambiguous instructions. The purpose of this announcement is to provide guidance for completing Other/Current and Pending Support documents when submitting grant proposals to federal funding agencies.
