Reports

The majority of externally funded projects require periodic reports, which may include progress reports (monthly, quarterly) and final reports (usually due within one month of the end of the agreement). These allow the funding agency to see detailed progress on all major tasks and track any changes that the investigator might require during the course of the work. Details on report deadlines are usually outlined in the signed agreement.

Federally funded projects typically require a final technical report with 90 days of the termination of the project, and may also require interim progress reports. Non-federal sponsors typically have reporting requirements as well. PIs/PDs are reminded of the need to submit reports required under the terms of the awards they receive or obtain formal approval to submit them at a later date. Similarly, PIs/PDs must submit other deliverables according to the timetable established for the project, seek an extension, or formally explain why the deliverable cannot be provided.

Please submit a copy of the final project report (if less than 10 pages) to ORSP for our files. Investigators with reports over 10 pages may submit an abstract of the report.
