NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide

 

 

This email serves as a reminder that the new
<http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf11001> NSF Proposal
& Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) (NSF 11-1) goes into effect for
proposals submitted, or due, on or after January 18, 2011.   The significant
changes to the PAPPG include 1) a requirement that all proposals submitted
to NSF contain an up to two page Data Management Plan as a Supplementary
Document and 2) implementation of the National Science Board's
recommendations regarding cost sharing.  A complete list of significant
changes accompanies the PAPPG.

Please note that because January 15th is a Saturday, and Monday, January
17th is a Federal holiday, per
<http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/policydocs/pappguide/nsf11001/gpg_1.jsp#IF> Grant
Proposal Guide Chapter I.F, the due dates are extended to the following
business day.  Therefore, proposals submitted in response to funding
opportunities whose deadline dates fall after close of business on January
14th, will be due January 18th, and will be subject to the requirements set
forth in NSF 11-1.   This includes the requirement to submit a Data
Management Plan as a supplementary document. 

FastLane will begin automated compliance checking for the data management
plan starting January 15th and proposals (including unsolicited proposals)
that do not comply with the requirement will be prevented from submission.


We encourage you to familiarize yourself with the new PAPP Guide, and visit
the Policy Office website (http://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/) for
additional information.  We have developed an entire suite of Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQs) on topics such as general proposal preparation and
award administration, Project Outcomes Reports, Responsible Conduct of
Research, Data Management Plans and Cost Sharing.  The Policy Office updates
these FAQs as new questions are raised, to keep the community aware of
emerging issues, so please visit our site often to access the latest
information on NSF policies and procedures.     

If you have any questions regarding these changes, please contact the Policy
Office on (703) 292-8243 or by e-mail to  <mailto:policy at nsf.gov>
