Re: Policy on sponsor limited F&A

At one point in time we would not process and submit proposals to a specific for profit that limited F&A to 0% and also claimed all IP rights. In another case we suspended submissions for a time with another company that attempted to conduct full blown rate negotiations each year on a long-term project. In the first case, the company raised the cap and modified the policy to reflect Bayh-Dole. The second was less satisfying... The company merged with another and they paid the established rate but didn't know there was ever any conflict in the first place.

I'm just curious - do any institutions have a policy that proposals can not be submitted to a sponsor that limits F&A below some certain threshold (i.e. can't submit to sponsors that allow 0 F&A or that only allow 10% F&A, etc.) or anything along those lines?
Feel free to reply to the list or to me directly at xxxxxx@wmich.edu<mailto:xxxxxx@wmich.edu>
Thanks!
