Project Management

It is the responsibility of the Principal Investigator (PI) to submit interim program/progess reports to the sponsor within the specified time frame and in the format indicated by the sponsor in the award document or contract.

If the sponsor does not indicate a format, the PI is advised to use a standard format that addresses the following project management concerns:

• A review of the accomplishments to-date compared with the schedule and objectives as outlined in the original proposal;
• A review of the challenges faced by the award in attempting to meet the schedule and objectives as outlined in the original proposal;
• Supporting statistical data or documentation;
• Management activities, such as documentation or training materials produced, staffing issues, etc.

A copy of all program/progress reports must be sent to SPA for the master file.
