  1. Research Performance Progress Reporting (RPPR) NIH Implementation and Guidance Syracuse University Office of Sponsored Programs Stuart Taub

  2. What is RPPR? • RPPR: Research Performance Progress Report is an initiative among federal agencies to introduce greater consistency for interim progress reporting, and to reduce administrative burden. • NIH RPPR process replaces eSNAP: electronic Streamlined Non-Competing Award Process. • NIH RPPR is required for all awards issued under the SNAP process, and all fellowship awards, with budget start dates on or after July 1, 2013. Non-SNAP awards targeted for October 2014, but final guidance not yet issued.

  3. What are the common RPPR components across all Agencies? • RPPR contain the following categories of information: • Standard Cover Page • Mandatory Component (Accomplishments) • Optional Components (Agency Specific) • Each Agency will utilize standard instructions developed for each category, but may also provide additional program-specific instructions necessary to clarify requirement for a particular program Follow agency specific guidance closely (one size does not fit all !)

  4. How are RPPR and eSNAP similar? • Describe progress, study results, the significance of the findings, and any significant changes. • Information is pre-populated from NIH Systems: • PD/PI Information • Grant Number • Project title and period • Performance Sites • Personnel • Due 45 days prior to budget start date for SNAP, and 60 days prior for Fellowships

  5. How are RPPR and eSNAP similar? • MyNCBI publications list displayed • Detailed budget not required • NIH policy requirements requested (agency specific components)

  6. What’s New in the RPPR? • Separate screens for reporting components • Uses checkbox, text box, PDF, or selecting “Nothing to Report” • Required information for all foreign collaborations • Effort rounded to nearest whole person month • Key Personnel: 0.0 - 0.4 months, enter 0 month effort • Key Personnel: 0.5 - 0.9 months, enter 1 month effort • Required section for competitive revisions/ admin. supplements associated with the award • Public Access compliance status displayed • Other support required only if changed from prior reports • Link to Notice of Award • Streamlined ClinicalTrials.gov reporting information

  7. RPPR Organizational Structure • The RPPR has separate screens for each of the following reporting components: • Cover Page • Accomplishments • Products • Participants • Impact • Changes • Special NIH Reporting Requirements • Budget – Not Required for SNAP awards, but will be required for non-SNAP

  8. RPPR Features to Remember • RPPR text boxes do not support special characters or symbols • PDF format must be used for uploads and cannot ‘bundle’ various sections; must be separate uploads • RPPR is only for interim progress reports, not the final • Remember to click SAVE button prior to leaving any screen, system does not autosave • Publications must be entered through MyNCBI, which will then filter to the RPPR • Progress Report Additional Materials (PRAM) is required if non-complaint publications are contained in the RPPR.

  9. What is PRAM? Progress Report Additional Materials (PRAM): • Electronic mechanism for NIH to request more information in connection with a progress report. Currently being utilized to correct for “non-compliant” publications. • Allows SU to respond to such requests (PI, SO). • All investigators should be aware of the NIH Public Access Policy to avoid PRAM requests and/or delays to funding because of “non-compliant” publications: http://publicaccess.nih.gov/

  10. Other Key Points • PIs/PDs need to prompt their graduate students and undergraduate students to create eRA Commons Logins now. • Phased in implementation - RPPR warnings effective beginning 10/18/2013; Required with RPPR submissions October 2014. • …additional information NOT-OD-13-097.

  11. Other Key Points • Individual Development Plans (IDPs) for all Graduate Students and Postdoc Researchers supported by NIH. • IDPs will help these individuals achieve career goals within the biomedical research workforce. • Institutions will be strongly encouraged to develop IDPs and report on these for such individuals reported as “Participants” on the RPPR beginning October 2014. See NOT-OD-13-093
