Re: DUNS numbers Cox, E Christine 07 Jul 2008 14:32 EST
We tried using the single DUNS number with extensions for our different campuses, but that system did not work. As I recall, the problem pertained to CCR. So, each campus of the University uses a different DUNS number for sponsored programs administration. We occasionally accrue extraneous DUNS numbers because departments and/or individual PIs directly request them, and our Controller/AVP periodically gets rid of those numbers.

Seems to be multiple numbers could cause reporting problems later when FFATA gets going. Lesley S.

The specific issue is whether a single institution can or should create a new DUNS number for the purpose of submitting federal proposals and distinguishing submissions/grants from different divisions within the institution. I have been told that sometimes this is done by adding a suffix (e.g. -0001) to the existing number. Anyone done this? thanks Charlie Hathaway ====================================================================== Instructions on how to use the RESADM-L Mailing List, including subscription information and a web-searchable archive, are available via our web site at http://www.hrinet.org (click on "Listserv Lists") ====================================================================== ====================================================================== Instructions on how to use the RESADM-L Mailing List, including subscription information and a web-searchable archive, are available via our web site at http://www.hrinet.org (click on "Listserv Lists") ====================================================================== ====================================================================== Instructions on how to use the RESADM-L Mailing List, including subscription information and a web-searchable archive, are available via our web site at http://www.hrinet.org (click on "Listserv Lists") ======================================================================
