PAMIS eCAF Sunset and Transition to KUALI
UC Riverside is transitioning to cloud-based research applications by Kuali to standardize the processes for research proposals, awards and subaward administration,
and documentation across various departments. Kuali is an integral part of Impact23; it will go live on July 5, 2023, and integrate with Oracle Project Portfolio Management.

The implementation of the new Kuali Research system will unavoidably require a transition period from the current PAMIS system in mid-June to the new one.
Research and Economic Development is fully aware of the inconvenience this will unfortunately create. To minimize the effects of this transition on proposal submissions
and taking in consideration feedback received from the senate leadership and several faculty members following the first communication on the subject by the Impact23 group,
a transition process has been determined and can be found on the SPA webpage<https://ucr.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=16b960a15758a2e9f6cc8140d&id=799ae12bbf&e=d130cbcf62>.

Key Cut-Off Dates
System
Description
Date
PAMIS/COEUS
Last day for Departments/PIs to provide Subaward Verification Form submissions.
5/29/2023
PAMIS/COEUS
Last day for department to submit Material Transfer requests and PreAward Spending requests
6/12/2023
PAMIS/eCAF
Last day eCAF submission.  This is the last date researchers can submit an eCAF (to RED) for proposals* due on or before July 7, 2023. (This cut-off date if for the eCAF; not the actual proposal.)

Researchers must follow the RED proposal submission policy, which requires the final proposal to be provided to RED/SPA two full business days before the sponsor's due date. (Cayuse will continue to remain available for use for system-to-system proposal submissions to Grants.gov.)

If a researcher is unable to submit an eCAF to RED by June 20th, such researcher will need to follow the three‐step interim eCAF proposal process identified in the eCAF Proposal Submission Transition Process<https://research.ucr.edu/sites/default/files/2023-05/ecaf-proposal-submission-transition-processes-may-2023.pdf> located on SPA’s website.

Starting July 5th, proposal routing and approval (eCAF) will be replaced by Kuali.

  *   Note: Kuali’s System to System (S2S) proposal submission to Grants.gov feature will not be enabled until Fall 2023.  This approach will provide the campus with additional time during the summer for training and familiarization with the S2S functionality in the Kuali SP sandbox environment.  Kuali Proposal, however, will still need to be used for the routing and approval of all proposals.

*The proposal is the final documents reviewed, endorsed by SPA, and provided to the sponsor via PDF, Cayuse, sponsors platform, etc.
6/20/2023
PAMIS/eAward
Last day for department PAMIS BEA submissions in eAward; must have the budget category breakdown completed and submitted.
6/21/2023

5/23/23:  CARB - Apply Now to Address Sustainable Transportation and Communities Data and Information Gaps
The California Air Resources Board’s (CARB) Sustainable Transportation and Communities Division has identified ten priority projects for which it is seeking brief pre-proposals from California State University (CSU) and University of California (UC) academics. These ten projects will fill important data, information, and research gaps to support the division’s programs related to sustainable transportation, land use, housing, and buildings.

Please see 2023 Pre-Proposal Solicitation for Sustainable Transportation and Communities Projects webpage<https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/our-work/programs/sustainable-communities-program/stcd-research-solicitations> for a list of projects, links to detailed statements of work, and other essential information about the application process and relevant dates.  If you have any questions, please email stcdivision at arb.ca.gov<mailto:stcdivision at arb.ca.gov>.
