Once the award notice is received, the OSP Post-Award administration assigns a WBS element number. Project expenditures are processed using this assigned unique number which identifies the correct fund.

Subcontracts

All subcontracts must be routed through the OSP. OSP will prepare a subcontract agreement between UNL and any third party with applicable terms and conditions.

If the project will include a co-PI at another institution, or if another institution is to serve as a subcontractor on the project, documents (detailed budget, scope of work, etc.) and authorized signatures from the co-PI and the other institution must accompany the UNL proposal when it is routed for signatures.

Be sure to include agreements from appropriate subcontract/consultant personnel.

Expenditures

The PI, with the cooperation of the appropriate departmental office, manages award funds and initiates all expenditures. Appropriate departments monitor expenses. The OSP Post Award Administration usually will submit any official financial reports to the sponsor as required.

UNL Hiring Procedures

UNL Hiring Procedures must be followed when hiring ALL UNL employees. Please call the Ardis Holland or Tammie Herrington if you have any questions regarding UNL employment.
