During the Pre-Proposal submission phase, PIs submit proposals via the Pre-Proposal Submission web interface, and eSG Administrators manage the process via the Administrative Review web interface or the RFP FMP interface. The Administrative Review interface is only for retrieving information, while the RFP FMP interface is for managing the information.

To access this interface, a user needs to be added as a reviewer via FMP, and assigned the reviewer role of Admin or Sub-Admin. Sub-Admins are prohibited from viewing reviews and rebuttals. The following fields must be populated when adding the reviewer: last name, first name, email, and password. For a description of roles, see Pre-Proposal Review: Setting-up Reviewers...

Call select: to view proposals for all active calls or only one active call.

Phase select: to view either pre-proposals or full proposals for the chosen call domain.

Pre-Proposal Information


Call: A proposal's parent call.

Proposal ID: This ID is a database-friendly concatenation of the PI's last name and a random four-digit number. This ID accompanies the proposal throughout the proposal process and through its lifespan as a funded project. Files and folders generated in the eSG system that relate solely to this proposal/project use this ID in their naming scheme. Click to open printer-friendly pop-up window of proposal summary.

PI: Proposal's primary investigator (PI).

Title: Proposal title. Click to open printer-friendly pop-up window of proposal summary.

Download: Compiled pre-proposals uploaded by the eSG Administrator via FMP appear here. The submit date in this column is the timestamp for the last time the PI clicked the 'Submit Proposal' button in the pre-proposal submission interface.

Reviews: Printer-friendly reviews for this pre-proposal, along with the ratio of: # of reviews submitted for this proposal / # of reviewers to which this proposal is available for review (see Pre-Proposal Review: Setting-up Reviewers...)

RFP FMP - Pre-Proposal Submission

Layout Descriptions


Pre-Proposals

  • Email Lead PIs [ see [manuals:General FMP Information] - Email Tool ]

  • View a proposal's investigator list, budget information, and files
  • Click 'Preview Coverpage' to see what the coverpage will look like for a particular proposal. Its layout depends upon the upper limit of accepted detailed investigator records ($pp_PI_limit; see Global Variables). Up to two detailed investigator records are displayed on the coverpage, and additional detailed records are listed under 'ADDITIONAL INVESTIGATORS'. 'OTHER PERSONNEL'  includes even less-detailed investigator information and appears last.

Investigators

  • This table includes investigators added either via registration or at the Investigators proposal submission step, including detailed contact information and a CV / resume. CV / resumes may be added, updated, and deleted here as well.
  • Investigators who registered as PIs automatically have a password; passwords may be applied to other investigators by simply typing one in to the box.
  • Access Type doesn't do anything at this time. Send Email tool needs to be added to this interface.

Budgets (you need to fully explain how the budget component works, in its own section)

  • PIs add budget worksheets to their proposals, and data from these worksheets are compiled in RFP FMP to create 90-4 forms. The Budgets section of RFP FMP offers 90-4s for browsing by default, but worksheets driving each 90-4 are accessible at top-right. Budget justification (optional in the pre-proposal phase) is editable via the 'Edit' button below the 90-4. New budget worksheets may be added in FMP, but may only be edited via the proposal submission interfaces.
