Bob,
this attached flow chart isn't exactly what you asked for, but it is
something I had to do for myself to understand how to explain the submission
process to our administrators. We do not submit a large number of grants
annually, but nevertheless we were required to register for the grants.gov
process by HRSA (who did not - thank goodness - require us to actually
submit the proposal through grants.gov). Once in a while, I will get a call
from someone in our organization who tells me that a federal agency told
them they must get a TPIN, and I am able to at least intercept the
transaction and get things directed into the right official channels.

Please note that I created the chart more than a year ago and have not
checked since then to see what minor details have shifted.

Subject: [RESADM-L] Grants.gov instructions

Does anyone have a web site or e-text that explains the Grants.gov
submission process.  All the stuff from the government starts with "Get
a DUNS number."

I was going to write some instructions for our Grants office staff on
how to do a submission but thought someone has probably already done
this (and better than I could!).

I see this starting with
1. Get the file from the PI and put it on your hard drive.

but maybe there are prior steps.

Thanks much for you help on this
