Grant Updates:

From The National Science Foundation:

OSP received the following from The Grants Resource Center concerning NSF requirements for submitting a proposal:

On June 1, 2020, NSF will implement the  (PAPPG) (NSF 20-1) for proposals submitted or due on or after this date. The revised PAPPG implements a variety of changes and clarifications, the highest profile of which requires use of an NSF-approved format for the preparation of the biographical sketch and current and pending support.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the ensuing stress on proposers, the research community has not been able to adequately prepare and train their staff for the implementation of the new requirements.

NSF has therefore made the decision to delay the requirement to use NSF-approved formats for the  and  sections of NSF proposals until October 1, 2020. Proposers must continue to format these documents in accordance with PAPPG requirements (see PAPPG sections  and ). NSF encourages the community to use these formats and continue to provide valuable feedback as we enhance them for future implementation.

Over the coming week, NSF will make updates to existing policy guidance, websites and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) to reflect the change. NSF will communicate further with the community once these updates have been made.

Webinars covering the use of NSF-approved formats as well as all of the significant changes to the PAPPG are available on the .

NSF will continue to implement all other changes to the PAPPG beginning June 1, 2020, including the following:

  • New requirement for proposing organizations to submit government-wide representations and certifications in the System for Award Management (SAM);

  • New requirement for providing e-mail documentation of Program Officer approval for the submission of RAPID and EAGER proposals; and

  • Clarifications to current and pending support coverage as well as other changes throughout the document.

You are encouraged to review the by-chapter summary of changes provided in the Introduction section of the PAPPG. If you have any questions regarding these changes, please contact the DIAS/Policy Office at policy@nsf.gov.

Limited Submissions:

National Science Foundation (NSF) 鈥 Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) Program - NSF limits the number of proposals submitted to a potential of three (3) per university. The Program Solicitation states: 

An MRI proposal may request up to $4 million for either acquisition or development of a research instrument. Beginning with the FY 2018 competition, each performing organization may submit in revised 鈥淭racks鈥 as defined below, with no more than two submissions in Track 1 and no more than one submission in Track 2.

  • Track 1: Track 1 MRI proposals are those that request funds from NSF greater than or equal to $100,000 and less than $1,000,000.

  • Track 2: Track 2 MRI proposals are those that request funds from NSF greater than or equal to $1,000,000 up to and including $4,000,000.

The next window for submission is January 01, 2023 鈥 January 19, 2023. Since MSU is potentially allowed to only submit three (3) proposals, we need to plan for a possible internal competition. Anyone planning to submit a proposal in January must contact the Office of Sponsored Programs by November 1, 2022. This will give us time to hold an internal competition should there be more proposed submissions in each category than allowed.
