This section details how the proposal elements move through the various states from initiation through approvals and submission. All workflows are presented for both NCAR and UCP as they have different user roles, organizational structure, and approval processes. Note the following:
Proposal and Budget move through the workflow together
PACUR has a separate workflow as this must be submitted for review 10 days before anticipated final proposal submission
For NCAR, a draft budget must accompany the PACUR submission to the NCAR Budget Office for review
PACUR must be approved before the proposal with final designated budget can be approved by the Budget Office
For Complex Proposals, all Projects will follow the same rules descibed above and must be approved before the proposal for submission to sponsor can be approved.
Allow additional time to process complex proposals. Work with your Entity Budget Office for all Complex Proposals.
