PROPOSAL DEADLINES
The Business Operations deadline for receiving proposals from PIs and Co-Is is three (3) days prior to the agency deadline for electronically submitted proposals (such as NSF Fastlane proposals) and four (4) days prior to the agency deadline for proposals that must be submitted in hard copy. Occasionally, circumstances may require that these deadlines be set slightly earlier. PIs should notify the Business Operations branch of their intent to propose as soon as possible so that the information may be added to the Proposal Calendar. When multiple proposals are due on the same date, the Business Operations branch processes proposals in the order they are added to the Proposal Calendar, i.e. first come, first served. The full text of SSI’s proposal policy is available to SSI employees on the SSI intranet. The Business Operations branch is pleased to accept early proposals for pre-deadline processing.
