There are several interdependent processes and steps within a sound research administration infrastructure. Beginning with the search for funding, through proposal development into award negotiation and account set up, to transacting against the award and preparing financial reports, it is critical for each individual involved in the life cycle of the award to understand his/her role and responsibility for the process to work in a streamlined, efficient manner.
With Harvard's vast size, decentralized environment and thousands of awards, we strive to form a web of individuals, processes and procedures that support a strong, compliant environment for research administration.
Below are links to the main categories within the Life Cycle of the Award, displaying the various interdependencies and steps for each award and Roles and Responsibilities matrices tailored for FAS, SPH and HMS.
