Hi Julie Here at the UW I have worked in a few departments providing post award support. Depending on the number of grants awarded, I meet with the PI's either monthly or quarterly to discuss their grant awards, terms and conditions of the awards, re-budgeting if required, summarize the existing budgets, encourage them to develop spending plans. I estimate projected costs and remaining balances base on that information. This helps provide information to the PI for their progress reports/renewals and any other issues, such remaining balances. I assist with the requesting of approval for carryforward funds to the next funding period, and also discuss the status of any sub-accounts and subcontracts affiliated with their project. I act as a liaison for the PI, both with the funding sponsor and the Grant & Contract Accounting office. By meeting with the PI's quarterly to discuss the status of their budgets also allows me to address closing issues and assist our GCA office with finalizing agency financial reports within a timely manner. I attempt follow up on all of the above to ensure everything makes it through the systems both at the agency level and the University level. That's just a quick summary of some of the things that I do at the dept. level for Post award support. Elaine J.

Do you have Grants Administrators at the Department or Division level? Also, do you/Grants Administrators meet regularly with your Faculty members to review their grants, and provide advice on expenses and talk about projections of various budget line items, etc? This is what I used to do when I was at my previous University, however, I want to find out if we were unique (where I was at prior to Stanford) or if we were the norm. Please let me know, thank you.

And remember that you never really get to correct, as in "edit". Instead, you get to supplement with corrected versions. The reviewers still get to see all of the goofs that were originally made.
