Please be aware that the Sponsored Projects Assistance & Response Center (SPARC) web page has been taken down for maintenance. 

We will let you know when the new form is available.  In the meantime, please contact your designated SPA Project Officer or SPF Project Manager directly with questions.  For a listing of SPA/SPF contacts, see SPA Project Officer assignments by department or SPF Project Manager assignments by department. 

Generally, your SPF PM should be the contact for your department on questions related to post-award financial management and reporting, and your SPA PO is the contact for any pre-award, account setup and subaward inquries.  Please see below for a breakout of responsibilities between SPA and SPF. 

• Proposal development and submissions: SPA

• Award/account changes: SPA
• Sub-award set-up and modification: on such matters please contact Glenn Davis, Senior Contracts Officer who coordinates the sub award team within SPA
