Submitting proposals, conducting research, and administrating sponsored projects involves many different people and units throughout the University of Maryland campus. While there may be some minor variations in processes from department to department and college to college, this page outlines the general process and identifies the appropriate party that has primary responsibility for different activities throughout the life cycle of a sponsored award.

Subawards funded by an outside sponsor and performed under a proposal submitted by UMD are governed by ORA procedures published in the Subcontracting Manual. This page describes the procedures and provides forms and resources for requesting, monitoring, and closing out subawards issued in support of research, development, and training. For subaward forms and sample budgets and invoices, click on the See Also link below.

Subawards must be officially closed at the end of the contract or award. At closeout, the PI officially attests that the terms and conditions have been met, all deliverables have been received and are acceptable, final invoices have been processed, and no further action is required.
