Close Out an Award

When an active award’s period of performance ends, Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) performs a series of tasks to close out the project. This should include verifying completion of all deliverables. In addition, as the assigned specialist, you should advance the award to the Completed state in the system as described below.

To close out an award in the system

1. From My Inbox or one of the tabs on the Grants Awards page, click the name of the active award to close out.

2. From the award workspace, click Complete.

3. In the Complete dialog box, optionally add a comment and supporting documents, then click OK.

   The state of the award and of all associated funding proposals changes to Completed. It is no longer possible to perform any operations on them.
