Subawarding, Transferring or Contracting
Out Part of an NSF Award (Subaward)
Excluding the purchase of items such as commercially
available materials and supplies, equipment or general support
services allowable under the grant, no part of an NSF award
may be subawarded, transferred, or contracted out to another
organization without prior NSF authorization. The intent to
enter into such arrangements should be disclosed in the
proposal.
If it becomes necessary to subaward, transfer or contract out
part of an NSF award after a grant has been made, the grantee
shall submit, at a minimum:
a. a clear description of the work to be performed by
each subrecipient;
b. a separate budget for each subaward; and
c. If funding is requested to support a postdoctoral
researcher,
and the original proposal did not include a mentoring
plan, then
the request must include the requisite mentoring plan
as described in GPG Chapter II.C.2.j.
The plan must be uploaded to the "Other
Supplementary Documents" section of Fastlane. The PI must
report on the mentoring activities provided to the individual
(s) in annual and final project reports.
The request must be signed and submitted by the AOR via use
of NSF’s electronic systems, and NSF authorization will be
indicated by an amendment to the grant signed by the Grants
and Agreements Officer. The NSF grant terms and conditions
will identify which articles flow-down to subrecipients.
