What is a Subaward?

A subaward may be required if part of the research effort under a sponsored project is to be performed by an outside organization or institution. The subagreement defines the scope of work, provides an itemized budget and budget justification, and outlines the terms and conditions under which the work will be completed. It also ensures that the subrecipient complies with sponsor requirements.

The Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) manages all subagreements with other institutions. Subcontracts should be set up as soon as possible after the receipt of an award.
