Chris:  this is mainly a complexity analysis by type of agreement; the simple, one investigator no subs agreement is complexity level 1, whereas a large, multi-party agreement on, let's say genetics, with international partners and multiple agreements, including research agreement, NDA, IP agreement, etc. would fall under a complexity level 5.

I'm also thinking of bumping up any interactive agreements with federal and state government agencies up to a 5.  Talk about time sink! :-)

That's a GREAT idea Rochelle!   What kinds of factors are you thinking
might go into it?  I'd think number of documents, number of special reviews, size of the budget, number of sub recipients, reporting requirements (federal, state, etc.), number of personnel might be some good ones to start with.

Let me know if you want a copy.  I want to add the 1-5 complexity rating to our award database and run reports from time to time on complex awards.  It's a very vague measure but it's better than what we have now (nothing).
