Tips and Reminders for Award

Nice-to-have!

  • For any award requests, including cost-sharing accounts and allocation requests, please include the fund # in the subject line on e-mails. If the award is not set up yet, please include the PDS doc # in the subject line on e-mails.

Space Allocation

  • Make sure to add ALL divisions and alphas to the space allocation tab prior to requesting a new allocation or a cost-sharing account.

As per our e-mail signature line:
NOTE: OSRS is asking Department Administrators to assist OSRS in verifying the accuracy of any update/maintenance made to a fund profile, as well as, any allocations (including cost sharing accounts). Should any discrepancies occur, or if a request has not been fulfilled satisfactorily, please notify me via e-mail as soon as possible. No response will indicate that OSRS has fulfilled the request correctly and accurately.

****If this budget includes a planned subaward, please go to the SUBSystem to authorize the Contract Team to process subrecipient funding.****
