Mike, At ISU we ask the PI/Department for a copy of the Proposal as submitted. We don't copy and mail centrally so they make an extra paper copy for us. When we submit electronically (centrally), we save a copy of the file and don't ask the PI/Department for a paper copy. For NSF and NIH, we save the PDF file of the entire proposal and the Grants.gov application. For all other Grants.gov submissions, we only save the Grants.gov application. Since our internal routing form is electronic, we save the files to the same folder as the "GoldSheet." Diane Diane M.
