Re: Rush/Last Minute Proposal Policies? Susan Meslang 01 Feb 2005 16:57 EST

We are having the same problems - no matter the funding agent.  In the
past everything was done to get a proposal submitted on time even when
the PI submitted it very late - resulting in sloppy work, late hours
etc.  We are eager to hear how others handle this.

Hello all,

We're having a lot of trouble with rush and last minute proposals,
especially for the NSF deadline that passed yesterday. Does anyone
have
a good policy for dealing with these types of proposals, or does
anyone
use any sort of incentive/penalty system if the proposal is on-time
vs.
late? We are considering a small pool of money with a drawing per year
for investigators that get their proposals in on time. Conversely,
there
is serious talk from on high about charging the offending unit a fee
if
the proposal is last minute. Obviously training will factor some into
this situation as we implement our upcoming faculty training, but for
now, we really feel the need to implement a policy that deals with
proposals that don't follow our 5 business day rule. Any ideas
appreciated.

Sincerely,
Andrew Gray
