Welcome to the University of Maine Proposal Approval Routing System (PARS) |
|
|
IMPORTANT NEW REQUIREMENT - Conflict of Interest Training Personnel appearing as PI or CoPI on PARS proposals created on or after April 1, 2013 will be required to complete the UMS Conflict of Interest Training course offered by CITI. Instructions and a link to the course are available at http://www.orsp.umesp.maine.edu/ORSPDocs/Info/CITI_Instructions_COI.pdf Once the course is completed, the participant must enter the date the course was passed into their PARS user profile. PIs will not be able to route a proposal in PARS and CoPIs will not be able to approve their participation on the project until the requirement is met and recorded in PARS. Date information will be matched with CITI's records periodically to validate the entries. This is a work in progress. Until the kinks are worked out ORSP will make sure that proposals are submitted to sponsors on time if the training is the only factor holding up the submission. |
|
In order to route a proposal to approvers, it must be assigned a
submission number by ORSP which the preparer then enters into PARS. The
number will be assigned when the preparer contacts their ORSP Grants and
Contracts Specialist to begin working on the proposal budget. Please download and use the latest version of the ORSP budget spreadsheet. |
