Notify PI and Department Administrator once approved and activated. Review incoming agreement modifications to confirm that proposed changes are appropriate. Negotiate, with guidance from the manager as necessary, with sponsors. Draft and issue outgoing agreement modifications to collaborators with directives from PI and department. Communicate with department and PIs throughout the grant lifecycle and assist in the development and submission of all requests for a change of PI, change in scope of work, extension requests, and re-budgeting requests. Review and approve salary allocations for personnel with salaries that are directly charged to sponsored research agreements. Check to make sure all accounts are active and that the proposed changes are appropriate and allowable per the terms of the award. Work with assigned departments and other MGB offices, as needed, on all PI transfers. Conduct financial analysis for all active accounts on the assigned department portfolio. Work with Post-Award Manager on complex transactions. Use Insight, MicroStrategy, or PeopleSoft queries and reports to measure and manage workflow effectively and efficiently.
