Research Agreement
ISP’s Standard Research Agreement is a standard contract that is meant to simplify and expedite the contracting process between the University and a sponsor. The RA is pre-approved by ISP and does not require any negotiation. When using an RA please note:
- A DSR-1 is needed.
- The RA carries the full federal negotiated indirect cost rate of the University.
- If the sponsor chooses, the contract language is negotiable.
- It does not require all funding monies to be paid upon execution; however, this is preferred.
