Business Office Overview

The Discovery Park Business Office supports the business and sponsored programs needs of faculty conducting research within Discovery Park. The Discovery Park Business Office staff plays an important role in both the submission and management of large inter-disciplinary research grants.

Awards made through Discovery Park will be administered through the Discovery Park Business Office. The staff will assist the faculty with on-going interactions with the sponsoring agencies, administer subcontracts, process prior approval requests, prepare budgets for continuation requests, prepare financial reports, manage, track and transfer cost sharing commitments.

Due to the physical separation, customer service processes have been implemented to enable the faculty member's home business office to continue providing purchasing, payroll and travel services. In effect, the faculty member gets the best of both worlds...expert business and SPS services during the proposal preparation process, award management and reporting and a single account manager across all sponsors while still maintaining the convenience of their home business office for day-to-day transactions.
