Greetings Colleagues,
Proposals with a GIM 19 deadline of July 7th may miss that deadline due to intermittent SAGE down time that was earlier reported. Due to these technical issues, any proposal with a GIM 19 deadline of July 7th (today) has been moved to Monday, July 10th.
This notice serves as a GIM 19 deadline waiver for this population of proposals. OSP’s review will be cursory on all proposals arriving in OSP on Monday, July 10th, as we expect an extremely high volume. We ask for patience and to give your proposals an extra review on your end before you mark as “ready to submit”, including that OSP has access to your proposal in any sponsor system involved.
Due to OSP’s short review window for this population of proposals, there is an increased risk of compliance issues with the proposal content/format. Please know this raises the risk of submission issues, and again, it is imperative these are given extra review on your end before routing.
Thanks for your attention to this and your patience.
Carol Rhodes
Director, Office of Sponsored Programs
