Reporting and Importance
Funding Agencies may require the completion and submission of milestone reports on a quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. Repots must be submitted on a timely basis as indicated in the award conditions. Sponsors may withhold payments (and payments to all awards to UCLA) if reporting requirements are not met in a timely manner. Read the award notice and agreement conditions to identify reporting requirements.
Examples of reports that may be required include:
- Technical/narrative/progress reports
- Financial reports
- Invention/patent reports
- Milestone reports
- Equipment management report
UCLA and/or sponsors may send reminders prior to reporting deadlines.
Review and submission of reports may require both OCGA and Extramural Fund Management (EFM) involvement so build in sufficient time to allow time for review.
Reporting Tools
Some sponsors may require the use of sponsor specific systems for the submission of reports. Please work with OCGA (awards@research.ucla.edu) for the submission of reports if you have questions.
