Federal Subcontracts

Submitting a grant subcontract

  1. Begin from the project’s grant log  in PEER (the original Grant Application, the Incoming Subaward log, or the Add-On Subcontract record, as appropriate).   From the left hand bar, choose “View/Create Contracts from this Proposal” and follow the directions to complete a PEER Contract Request for each subcontract. 
  2. For an incoming subcontract (in which VUMC is the subcontractor), the Contract Request must include a copy of the draft subcontract prepared by the other party.  
  3. For an outgoing subcontract (in which VUMC is the grantee, and is subcontracting to another institution), the Contract Request must include a clear and complete scope of work and budget.
  4. Once you have completed the questions in the Contract Request and uploaded the necessary documents, validate and submit the Contract Request (in Step 7 of the PEER Contract Request).   Your request will be reviewed, and if all necessary information is present, it will be promptly assigned to an OSP-CM Contract Analyst.
  5. If you have additional information which will be helpful to the OSP-CM Contract Analyst, please include it in the Comments Log (in the lower right corner of the PEER Contract Request).
