Contact the Faculty Office early in the process to plan and discuss project needs of administrative support and availability of administrative staff. Preferably, this is done already when developing the proposal in order for the Faculty Office to meet the need in time.
Also, some funders provide the possibility to apply for funding for administrative staff (see section about Project budget).
The proposal development step, also commonly referred to as the pre-award phase represents the beginning of the research project lifecycle, which includes drafting proposals, setting up collaborations, budgeting, compliance check, reviewing and submission. The Pre-award checklist and sections below provide support during the proposal development step.
