Jill,

Here at the Texas Engineering Experiment Station, we have been following
up with a survey to faculty after submission of each proposal.  We have
been doing this since 1995.

On a quarterly basis the responses are tallied. Then the data is entered
into a simple spreadsheet that calculates a score on a scale of 1 to 5
for each question and then an overall score.

We typically end up with a 4.7 or higher score so those faculty that
respond seem very pleased with our service. This is complied into a
report that lists the PIs that responded and their comments.  I forward
this report up to my boss. I have found this data to be useful in
supporting raises for folks.  Any negative comments and suggestions on
how to improve the process are followed up on.

I tried to attach the questionnaire, tally sheet and spreadsheet but it
was too large to post to the listserv.  If you want copies email me
directly at xxxxxx@tamu.edu and I will send it to you.

David

Subject: [RESADM-L] Survey - Post Propopsal Submission

We are working on developing a survey to send to PIs after each proposal
submission.  So we are researching what is currently being done by other
institutions.

We'd appreciate anyone willing to share information on the survey tools
that they currently use or have tried, as well as any thoughts related
to them.

Thank you.
