About electronic Report Deliverable Submisson - Internal
ORR has implemented a new process for electronic submission of contract deliverables. The electronic Report Deliverable Submisson - Internal (eRDS -Internal) is one component of ORR’s integrated, secure system for the electronic submission, capture, tracking and review of ORR contract deliverable. eRDS-Internal was developed for the purposes of streamlining our contract deliverable submission and review processes, preparing for the eventual elimination of paper submissions, and reducing costs associated with storage of large paper files.
Benefits to the research community:
- Easy-to-locate active ORR contracts
- Reduced costs for printing and mailing of paper files
- Eliminate security risk of paper processing and transportation time
- Real-time feedback on transmission suORSess
Benefits to the NIH Acquisition Offices:
