During the negotiation phase ORA often consults with many stakeholders across the University to ensure the PI and University\u2019s interests are considered and protected. In addition, ORA will verify compliance approvals have been secured for projects that involve human subjects, animal subjects, rDNA or infectious agents, or other compliance issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All PIs are expected to review and approve the award terms and conditions to become familiar with the sponsor\u2019s expectations and requirements in carrying out the project. For example, federal sponsors will often expect annual and final technical progress reports as well as specify changes that require the sponsor\u2019s prior approval (e.g., change in key personnel).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-background\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(180deg,rgb(250,244,236) 0%,rgb(241,178,91) 100%);text-transform:uppercase\"><strong>Problematic Terms &amp; Conditions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, negotiations are not required on a federal grant because the terms and conditions are standard and prescribed. Whereas, the terms and conditions found in agreements and contracts may require substantial negotiation depending upon the sponsor\/funding source.
