Cayuse 鈥淪ponsored Projects,鈥 or 鈥淐ayuse SP鈥 bridges the gap between outdated manual processes and current state of the art system for proposal routing and approval; non-financial award management and reporting.聽 The OSP manual routing and approval process is now replaced by a 鈥渄ata gathering鈥 electronic 鈥淚nternal Processing Form鈥 with autofill functionality. 聽(Yes, the legacy Montclair routing form is now obsolete!).
The Office of Sponsored Programs will be able to track and report on many aspects of a specific Principal Investigator, Department, and/or College鈥檚 proposals and awards鈥攅.g., key personnel, student involvement, scientific discipline, IT needs, and compliance considerations to name just a few!
Cayuse SP is a complementary system to Cayuse Proposals (formerly Cayuse 424). As in the past, you will still use Cayuse Proposals to develop and submit proposals to Grants.gov. However, proposals sent via Grants.gov through Cayuse Proposals are electronically linked with Cayuse SP. This allows the system to autofill important budget information on your routing form, yet the routing and approval process will now lie in SP exclusively. NSF applicants will continue to use Research.gov but the approval process will take place in Cayuse SP.
And, over time, PI鈥檚, Chairs, Deans, etc., will have instant and full real-time visibility into their respective individual and unit proposal and award activity!聽 OSP鈥檚 reporting to the Montclair leadership and community will be significantly enhanced with Cayuse SP, with greater depth and efficiency.
