Pre-Award Team Contact List

Pre-Award Team Contacts

Proposal Services (PS) and Award Administration (AA) Contacts

PS staff assist with proposal budgets, internal routing for permission to submit, and submissions. They will normally contact you within one business day of receiving an InfoSheet, the first step in the submission process, and you will be assigned a PS contact to assist with each submission.  AA staff negotiate agreements/contracts, set up award accounts, and process modifications to awards/agreements. AA contacts serve researchers from a designated part of the alphabet (by last name of PI). Your PS and AA contacts will remain constant as often as possible; however, there are occasions due to leave, training, or proposal overload when you may work with a different person.

ORS staff do not have voicemail; email is the preferred contact method. If you have a general question, you can email ris@ou.edu or research@ou.edu.  You can also call our office at 325-4757, where you will be connected with an available contact, or you can leave a message for a specific staff member.
