- ADHS17-00007403, AZ IG (Arizona Investigator Grant) Application Forms
The ABRC RFGA states:
3. Available Funds - ADHS17-00007401 AZ NIA (Arizona New Investigator Grant)
- 3.1 Maximum award per AZ NIA application up to seventy-five thousand ($75,000.00) annually and maximum project duration up to three (3) years from the award date.
3. Available Funds - ADHS17-00007403 AZ IG (Arizona Investigator Grant)
- 3.1. Maximum award per AZ IG application up to two hundred fifty thousand ($250,000.00.00) annually and maximum project duration up to three (3) years from the award date.
7.2.1. Indirect costs are allowed however cannot exceed ten percent (10%) of the total direct cost for each budget year
- 10% Total Direct Cost: For example, in a $100,000 budget $90,909 may be requested in direct cost and the associated 10% F&A (Facilities & Administrative indirect cost) would be $9,090. Please use 10% TDC when preparing your budgets. If your proposal includes a subcontract and the subcontractor is requesting the 10% allowable indirect cost rate, UA indirect costs should be calculated at a 10% Modified Total Direct Cost Rate (10% of all direct costs less all subcontractor costs).
Again, please do not register yourself with ProcureAZ; contact SPS and we will submit the proposal in the ProcureAZ system.
