Proposal checklist for proposal submission disclosure requirements
-
Proposals are submitted in accordance with opportunity announcements.
-
Each announcement contains specific proposal requirements. All ARL Announcements (BAA’s) must be read thoroughly to ensure proposal submission requirements are met. Please refer to the individual funding announcement for proposal submission guidelines.
Format in which proposals can be submitted
Proposals must be submitted via Grants.Gov either by the Kuali Coeus Proposal System to System interface with Grants.Gov or directly into Grants.Gov. Proposals may also be submitted via email.
For electronic submissions in Grants.Gov, all appropriate fields are to be filled out in accordance with BAA Instructions.
Normally the Sponsor will contact the RAS Liaison regarding any issues with validations, or any other proposal questions regarding the SOW or budget. Historically ARL Proposals do not fail validations as ARL does not have stringent validation requirements like other federal agencies (i.e. NIH).
