Progress Reporting

Progress and financial reports are required of all BWF grants and are due on the date(s) specified in the award letter or contract. The Advisory Committee and staff depend heavily upon progress and financial reports to evaluate progress. Late reports inconvenience advisory committee reviewers and impede BWF's evaluation of its programs. Failure to submit progress or financial reports in a timely fashion will result in payments being withheld, and if submissions are missed repeatedly, the award will be terminated.

BWF provides the following progress report guidelines to assist in preparing and submitting progress reports in an acceptable manner. The progress report and financial updates are to be submitted through Proposal Central. After logging in to Proposal Central, you can find the required deliverables listed on the home page. Failure to submit any portion of the report by the due date will result in the interruption or cancellation of your funds.

Progress Report

The progress report requires the awardee to submit a written report on the progress of the original or approved update to the research project aims, an updated biographical sketch, sources of other funding, and any recent publications. Details regarding each section are in Proposal Central. The progress report must be submitted annually on August 1st.

Financial Report

Awardees are required to update award spending in the Proposal Central budget summary. Awardees should update the financial report yearly and provide up-to-date spending information from the previous year. Details regarding financial reporting are in Proposal Central. Financial reports are due annually on August 1st.

Report Format
