Advance Proposal Analysis

Step 4:  Evaluate Potential Research Result

Determine the likely forms which the Research Results may take and where those Research Results may be transferred.

· This requires a careful scrutiny of the deliverables and often a “translation” of the deliverables into the specific forms identified under the Research Results heading.

· Likely forms of research results:

à Publications of various kinds, including reports or data transfers, or evaluation of results.

à Software and prototypes

à Specific reference to equipment that the researchers have committed to design, build or deliver.

· Determine where these tangible products (software, prototype and/or equipment) will ultimately be sent.

 

 

Step 5: Determine Whether Outside Review or Any License is Needed and Document the Process
