It allows principal investigators and institutional officials to track submission status, application assignment and review information, award information, and it supports post award reporting, amongst other things. </p> </li> <li> <strong>ASSIST</strong> <ul> <li> NIH's Application Submission System & Interface for Submission Tracking (ASSIST) is one of several submission options available to prepare and submit grant applications electronically to NIH and other Public Health Service agencies. </li> </ul> </li> </ul> <h3>Key Roles</h3> <p> There may be quite a few people involved in the preparation, submission, and administration of your grant application. </p> <p> Grants.gov and eRA Commons use roles to determine which tasks each user is authorized to perform. At the time of organization registration, your organization designates one or more people with the authority to legally bind your organization in grants administration matters. Those designated individuals (Signing Officials in eRA Commons or E-Business Points of Contact in Grants.gov) can assign roles to other user accounts to define the functions they are authorized to perform. </p> <p> Most electronic interactions with NIH are done through eRA Commons. </p> <strong>Key eRA Commons Roles</strong> <ul> <li> <strong>Signing Official (SO)</strong> <ul> <li> Holds authority to legally bind your institution and assume responsibility for adhering to all federal grant administration requirements referenced in the <a href="/policy-and-compliance/nihgps">NIH Grants Policy Statement</a> </li> <li> Registers the institution and maintains institutional profile data </li> <li> Accesses information for all applications and grants within your institution, including status and award information </li> <li> Creates and administers user accounts including additional SO and account administrator (AA) accounts </li> </ul> </li> <li> <strong>Project Director/Principal Investigator (PD/PI)</strong> <ul> <li> Holds eRA Commons PI role as the designated project director/principal investigator (PD/PI) of an application or grant </li> <li> Directs the project or activity being supported by the grant and is accountable to the recipient organization for the proper conduct of the project or activity </li> <li> Performs or delegates tasks such as maintaining person profile information, checking application status, checking assembled application image used for review and performing post-submission administrative functions </li> <li> Accesses information for their own grants and applications, including summary statements, scores, and notices of award </li> </ul> </li> </ul> <div class="d-flex mb-4" data-ds-id="s98xcsd9"> <div class="d-flex flex-column"> <small class="bg-secondary bi bi-lightbulb-fill d-flex p-1 rounded-circle text-white"></small> <div class="d-flex h-100 justify-content-around mt-1 mx-2"> <div class="bg-secondary h-100" style="width: 3px"> </div> </div> </div> <div class="ps-3"> <strong>Want to learn more?</strong> <div> Visit <a href="https://www.era.nih.gov/files/eRA_Commons_Roles.pdf" target="_blank">eRA Commons Roles</a> (PDF) for a detailed list of eRA Commons roles and <a href="https://www.era.nih.gov/erahelp/ams_new/" target="_blank">Accounts Module Online Help System</a> for instructions for creating accounts. </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="accordion-item border border-light border-2 mb-2"> <h2 class="accordion-header" id="register"> <button class="accordion-button bg-tertiary bg-opacity-50 collapsed" type="button" data-bs-toggle="collapse" data-bs-target="#collapseEight1" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapseEight1"> <strong class="text-dark">Get Registered</strong> </button> </h2> <div class="accordion-collapse collapse" id="collapseEight1" aria-labelledby="register" > <div class="accordion-body"> <h3 id="registerOrgs">Organizations</h3> <p> If your organization is new to working with NIH, multiple organization registrations are required including eRA Commons, System for Award Management (SAM), Grants.gov, and Small Business Administration (if applicable). </p> <p> The full registration process in each system is typically completed once and then maintained as organization information changes. </p> <p> The person who registers your organization must be authorized to act for the applicant organization and to assume the obligations imposed by the Federal laws, regulations, requirements, and conditions that apply to grant applications or grant awards. </p> <p> This individual may be referred to as an entity administrator, signing official (SO), or authorized organization representative (AOR) depending on the system.
