Dear Colleagues,

The Governor’s announcement yesterday is welcome news for our daily lives as masking and social distancing requirements are relaxed/eliminated for most of our personal activities.

Greetings,

As many of you know, in April 2022, the federal government will stop using the DUNS number to uniquely identify entities registered in the System for Award Management (SAM).

SAM.gov also provides the ability to search for entities and individuals so you can determine if they have been suspended or debarred. It is also used to submit service contract reports for some federal contracts.

Dear Research Community,

Based on user feedback, we have made updates that streamline the SAGE Advance Budget approval process and Advance Reviewer role setup in ASTRA.

What Changed?

Advances with financially responsible division or sub-division level organization codes can now be approved by either a division OR department level ASTRA-authorized Advance Reviewer.

Due to biennium crossover, the eFECS suite of applications will be unavailable for all users from Wednesday, June 30^th at 5:00pm until Monday, July 12^th at 10:00am. This lockout will include eFECS Effort, eFECS Cost Share Module, and the Non-FEC Cost Share Tagging System.

During the lockout period, users will be unable to view, edit, tag, or certify within any of the eFECS systems.

Dear Colleagues,
