Research Community Update #1 

The Office of Research Administration would like to provide you with an update of the IBISResearch launch, and provide some resources and helpful tips. 

First Three Days of IBISResearch

In only three days of IBISResearch going live, we have twenty-five Funding Proposal newly created in the sytem, three Funding Awards set up or in the process of being set up and nine agreements in process.  

Current University employees have access to IBISResearch. Vist the new IBISResearch website and log in using your Cane ID and Password. 

Video on How to Create Follow-On Proposals 

If you are interested in learning how to create a continuation, revision/supplement or renewal application in IBISResearch, watch this video.  It will also provide information on how to create a resubmission in the system. 

Selecting Responsible Department 

After creating a Funding Proposal, be sure to select a Responsible Department for the proposal under Personnel. This selection will enable the proposal to be routed for review and approval to the appropriate Cost Center. Helpful Hints:

• Do not select any Cost Center from UMMG. Use MSOM Cost Center instead.
• Do not select anything with a CCH notation.
• Search by ORG ID# to find correct Cost Center – use wildcard %CC000813 in search box.

Before Submitting Proposal for Department Review - Check for Reviewers

• From the Funding Proposal Workspace, click on the Reviewers tab.
• Review the names under Approval Step 1.
• Confirm the proposal is going to the appropriate Chair/Reviewers for your Cost Center.
• Contact the IBISResearch Help Desk at ora-si@miami.edu for assistance if Reviewers are not listed or should be updated.
