Our info on this topic is at http://www.research.fsu.edu/contractsgrants/intro.html.  It does not address faculty from other universities but it is our practice to get approval from the other university's sponsored programs office for their pi to be a consultant as opposed to a subcontractor.

Subject: [RESADM-L] difference between subcontractors and consultants

Colleagues,

Greetings from snowed-in Seattle. Since I have been working from home for two days now, I am actually getting to some pending projects.

Does anyone have a policy about the difference between a subcontractor and a consultant? I am trying to create a policy for my department that explains the difference between a subcontractor and a consultant. Also, when it is allowable to have a faculty member from another university be a consultant rather than having a subcontract with their university.

I'd appreciate it if anyone can share their policy or their experiences.

Thanks!

Leesa Brown
