NSF Introduction
In furtherance of the President's Management Agenda, in Fiscal Year 2006,
NSF has
identified specific programs that will either authorize, or require, use
of Grants.gov to
prepare and submit proposals to NSF.NSF will revise each of the funding
opportunities identified below to incorporate Grants.gov submission requirements
throughout the fiscal year. Once the funding opportunity has been revised
and posted to Grants.gov FIND, the application package will become available
in Grants.gov APPLY. The application package will contain the appropriate
Pure Edge forms, NSF specific forms, and the NSF Grants.gov Application Guide.
Applicants are advised that until the funding opportunity has been revised,
the NSF FastLane system must be used to prepare and submit grant applications
to NSF.
In determining whether to utilize Grants.gov or the NSF FastLane system for
the
electronic preparation and submission of the proposal, applicants should
note that
neither collaborative proposals, nor any other proposals that contain subawards
may be
submitted to NSF using Grants.gov. All collaborative proposals (regardless
of whether
or not the funding opportunity requires use of Grants.gov) must be submitted
via the
NSF FastLane system. This includes collaborative proposals submitted either
by
- One organization (and which include one or more subawards);
- As separate
submissions from multiple organizations.
Applicants who submit collaborative proposals via Grants.gov will be asked
to withdraw
the proposals and resubmit them via FastLane. (Chapter II, Section D.3
of the Grant
Proposal Guide provides additional information on collaborative proposals).
All other types of proposals that contain one or more subawards also must
be submitted
via the NSF FastLane system.
