The Office of Grants and Budget Management (OGBM) supports investigators during the post-award phase of externally funded research grants. Our mission is to ensure compliance with institutional, sponsor, and regulatory requirements while providing the highest quality of service, professionalism, and expertise. Our team works closely with investigators and departments to facilitate smooth award administration from acceptance through closeout.
OGBM manages a diverse portfolio of federal, state, foundation, and other non-profit awards which frequently involve collaborations with universities and other academic research hospitals. We serve as the primary point of contact for all non-industry sponsored research activities at The Queen’s Medical Center, providing guidance and resources to help investigators navigate complex administrative and financial processes.
Once your project is funded, OGBM assists with:
Review and negotiate award terms and conditions. Accepts awards on behalf of The Queen’s Medical Center and the investigator.
Review and negotiate research agreements in collaboration with Queen’s legal team including grants, awards, fee-for-service, incoming/outgoing subawards, amendments, data use/data sharing, consulting, and material transfer agreements.
