  3. If Resignation Letter/Email was received, attach to Notification.听

听

Sponsored Projects

Grants and contracts are awarded to the University, not to individual PIs. For this reason, OCG is obligated to comply with Sponsor regulations and must be the official Administrative Department to relinquish an award if it is decided that 色戒成人直播 wishes to end its obligations to the award. When a PI鈥檚 affiliation with the 色戒成人直播 is dissolved, the following options are available: terminate the award, relinquish the award by transferring it to their New Institution, or retain the award at 色戒成人直播.

For All Awards

Regardless of if the award is retained or relinquished, the following actions should be completed:听

  1. A list of active awards and proposals for Departing Researcher (including projects where Departing Researcher鈥檚 role is as a CU Co-PI) should be completed by the Departing Researcher and/or DRA using the , which should then be submitted to ocg@colorado.edu.
  2. Departing Researcher, DRA, and Department Chair, and/or CU Co-PI should ensure all technical reports required to-date have been submitted to the Sponsor.
  3. Departing Researcher is required to complete Effort (ePERS)听certification for all reporting periods and all direct reports, prior to Departure Date. If Departing PI is issued a Courtesy Appointment, effort reporting will continue to be required for all projects on which they are assigned PI role.
  4. OCG will Reconcile BeRA record to reflect final information:
    • Changes in Key Personnel.
    • Final project dates.
    • Final Award obligations.
    • Attachment of applicable documentations.听

Termination of the Award

The departing CU PI, in agreement the Department Chair/Dean, may choose to terminate the award and relinquish funds to the Sponsor.

  1. The Departing Researcher and/or DRA should consult with their Area Accountant to determine the final balance of the award.
  2. Once the final balance of the project has been determined, OCG requires a relinquishment letter signed by the PI and Department Chair/Dean prior to relinquishment processes being initiated with the Sponsor. This letter should be emailed to the OCG Grant/Contract Officer processing the termination. The OCG Grant/Contract Officer will process the formal relinquishment of the award per the determined/required sponsor procedures.
  3. Upon receipt of 色戒成人直播鈥檚 relinquishment, the Sponsor will issue a modification to 色戒成人直播鈥檚 award, indicating effective date of termination and final obligation of the sponsor.
  4. Once the award has been terminated at 色戒成人直播, standard close-out procedures will be initiated, both contractual and financial. The Departing Researcher will still be responsible for all deliverables required up to the date of Award termination.听

Retention of the Award

If research is ongoing at 色戒成人直播, the departing CU PI and/or Department Chair/Dean may elect to transition the award to a new CU PI. In some cases, it may be permissible for the departing CU PI to remain a collaborator on the award, where 色戒成人直播 would issue a sub-agreement to the departing CU PI鈥檚 New Institution. For these cases, the departing CU PI will need to secure approval from the Department Chair/Dean and the Sponsor.

  1. If the Departing Researcher is to remain on a project as CU鈥檚 PI, they must have a Courtesy Appointment that has been approved by the Department Chair.
  2. In the event the Departing PI is not able to maintain PI status at 色戒成人直播, the Department Chair or Dean must name a replacement 色戒成人直播 PI for the Award.
    • If the project already has an assigned CO-PI, that would be the first option;
    • If no CO-PI is participating on the project, then Department Chair will need to find another qualified PI. Change in Key Personnel Status typically requires prior approval from Sponsor. Notify the Award鈥檚 assigned OCG Grant/Contract Officer to coordinate specific Sponsor requirements.
  3. In the event the Departing Researcher (either in PI or CO-PI role) is going to continue to collaborate on the project as a sub-recipient Co-PI from the New Institution, then a request for an outgoing sub-agreement will need to be prepared for Sponsor鈥檚 approval. Please note: Departing PI cannot be the PI on the 色戒成人直播 Award and PI on sub-agreement to the New Institution.听Before initiating this process, the change in key personnel (if Departing Researcher was previously the lead PI) must have been approved by the Sponsor, as detailed above.
    • DRA and newly assigned 色戒成人直播 PI should coordinate with OCG Proposal Analyst and Grant/Contract Officer to initiate the subcontracting process, including revising the prime budget
    • Any new Subagreements added to an existing award are subject to Indirect Costs. Per 色戒成人直播鈥檚 Federally Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement, the first听$25,000 of a Subagreement is subject to indirect charges.
    • Departing PI should coordinate with New Institution to create required subagreement proposal documents, including the following:
      • Subrecipient Statement of Work
      • Subrecipient Detailed Budget
      • Subrecipient Budget Justification
      • Subrecipient Commitment Form (signed by Authorized Official at New Institution)
      • Subrecipient Indirect Cost Rate Agreement for non-FDP members
      • Subrecipient IRB/IACUC Approval (if applicable)
      • Any other applicable Subrecipient documents required by the Prime Sponsor.
    • Once the internal Prime budget has been revised and Subrecipient documents received, OCG will initiate the request for approval for addition of subagreeement as required by the Prime Sponsor.
    • Once approval is received from the Prime Sponsor, OCG Subcontracting Officer will work with New Institution to establish agreement and purchase order.

Relinquishment of the Award

If the departing CU PI wishes to transition the award to a New Institution, the CU PI must first obtain the Department Chair/Dean鈥檚 approval. The departing CU PI will then need to work with the CCO - Area Accountant to determine the total amount to transfer, with OCG to terminate the award with the Sponsor, and with their New Institution to submit a transfer proposal to the Sponsor to move the award.

  1. If the Departing Researcher is a PI on an Award and wishes to transfer the award to their New Institution, the project should be identified as a potential transfer on the Active Awards Consideration Form. Department Chair/Dean signature is required on this form to approve transfer of identified projects. Once department approval is received, notify OCG & Campus Controller's Office to initiate the transfer process.
  2. The Departing Researcher and DRA should consult with each award鈥檚 assigned OCG Grant/Contract Officer to determine what information is needed to terminate the award between 色戒成人直播 and the Sponsor, and how to transfer the award to New Institution.
    • NIH and NSF have specific transfer procedures that must be followed. Detailed procedures can be obtained from the OCG Grant Officer or located on the sponsor resource webpages on the OCG website
    • If Sponsor does not have standard transfer processes, the OCG Award Officer will correspond with the award Authorized Official and/or Program Officer to determine what is required of 色戒成人直播 and New Institution. Departing PI, DRA, and New Institution Authorized Official should be included in the correspondence.
    • Once directions are understood, Departing Researcher should begin to coordinate with their New Institution to prepare the necessary proposal documentation that is to be submitted to the Sponsor to move the award from 色戒成人直播 to the New Institution. Total Transfer Amount is dependent on 色戒成人直播 final remaining balance.
  3. The Departing Researcher and DRA should consult with their Area Accountant to reconcile SpeedType(s) and determine the final balance of the award. The following cost categories should be considered when closing the SpeedType:
    • Subagreements: If there are subrecipients on the award, these agreements will need to be terminated prior to the relinquishment date as this will affect the final balance of the award.
      • DRA submits marked up Subrecipient Modification Request Form (SMRF) to OCG Subaward officer to start process.
      • Final Invoice will be needed to complete close out modification. OCG Subcontract Officer will advise DRA on process for each specific situation.
      • De-obligation closeout modification is issued by OCG Subcontract Officer to subrecipient.
      • Fully executed modification is used by OCG Subcontract Officer to close SPO.
    • Personnel. All project assigned personnel effort must be moved off the project prior to the determined relinquishment date.
    • Cost Share. Cost Share Accountant will work with DRA and Departing Researcher on cost share fulfilment.
  4. Once the final balance of the project has been determined, Departing Researcher and DRA will need to work with OCG Grant/Contract Officer assigned to Department to complete a formal relinquishment. OCG requires a relinquishment letter to the sponsor which will need to be signed by the Department Chair/Dean prior to any transfer processes being initiated with the sponsor. The OCG Grant/Contract Officer will process the formal relinquishment of the award per the determined/required sponsor procedures.
  5. The Departing Researcher must coordinate with their New Institution to prepare and submit any required proposal documents associated with the Award that the New Institution will be receiving.
  6. Upon receipt of 色戒成人直播鈥檚 relinquishment and the New Institution鈥檚 transfer proposal documents, the Sponsor will review the transfer information. If the transfer is approved, the Sponsor will issue:
    • To CU: A Modification to 色戒成人直播 award, indicating effective date of termination and final obligation.
    • To New Institution: A new award for the continuation of support for remaining scope of work.
  7. Once the award has been terminated at 色戒成人直播, standard close-out procedures will be initiated, both contractual and financial. The Departing PI will still be responsible for all deliverables required up to the date of Award termination.

Please note: The time involved in coordinating the transfer between the CU PI, Sponsor, 色戒成人直播, and the New Institution can take several months depending upon the complexity of the project being transferred.听

Tangible Research Materials and CU Discoveries

  1. The Departing Researcher and DRA will need to take a complete inventory of all Tangible Research Materials and CU Discoveries using the "Tangible Research Materials and CU Discoveries List" form. The Departing Researcher will need to indicate what they would like to do with each item on the list. Once this form is completed, the departing PI/DRA will need to submit a copy to their OCG Contract Administrator, ocgcontracts@colorado.edu.
  2. The OCG Contract Administrator will determine if there are any restrictions governing the use or transfer of each item. The Contract Administrator will advise the Departing Researcher what they will need to do with each item, for example:
    • Items marked "Transfer to New Institution":
      • Items created and owned by CU: An agreement (Material Transfer Agreement (MTA), Data Use Agreement (DUA)) may need to be executed between CU and New Institution prior to the transfer.
      • Items obtained from another institution: OCG Contract Administrator will verify if the materials can be transferred to the New Institution and if any additional steps need to be taken. The Departing Researcher may need to seek approval from the original provider for the transfer to their New Institution. [Provider may require that a new MTA with the New Institution be established before CU can transfer such items to the New Institution.]
    • Items marked 鈥淪taying at CU鈥:
