Proposal Intake Form (PIF)

The PI/Dept uses the Proposal Intake Form (PIF) to communicate all proposal submission requests to RMG (new, renewal, resubmission, supplements, etc.). The PIF also records the PI’s approval.

The RPM then uses the information from the PIF to develop a budget draft for the proposals, so be sure to include sufficient information in the PIF to get the proposal process started.
