DUNS numbers Charlie Hathaway 05 Jun 2008 10:36 EST

Can anyone educate me on the possibility or advisability of a single
institution (i.e. single EIN) using different DUNS numbers for different
purposes?  The specific issue is whether a single institution can or
should create a new DUNS number for the purpose of submitting federal
proposals and distinguishing submissions/grants from different divisions
within the institution.
I have been told that sometimes this is done by adding a suffix (e.g.
-0001) to the existing number.
Anyone done this?
thanks
Charlie Hathaway
