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.
