ARI Matching Funds Acquisition Policies and Guidelines 30-32 3 Glossary Added compensation For faculty, added compensation or additional employment is sometimes referred to as “overload”. Therefore, added compensation refers to CSU additional employment of up to twenty-five percent of a full-time position in excess of a full-time workload, or when appropriate, in excess of a full-time time-base. Additional employment and overload limitations and calculations are based on workload or time-base, not salary (CSU Policy HR 2002-05). For employees covered by collective bargaining agreements, the additional employment provisions of the applicable collective bargaining agreement supersede CSU Policy HR 2002-05 and govern the administration of additional employment. ARI The California State University Agricultural Research Initiative Campus Coordinator Campus coordinators are the individuals responsible for ARI campus administration, local program oversight and collaboration with the ARI executive director on each of the four member campuses. Campus Funding Campus funding is ARI funding dispersed directly to member campuses in support of intra-campus competitive proposals submitted under these Guidelines. Cash Legal tender that can be used in exchange for goods, debt or services. This includes bank accounts, marketable securities, government bonds, banker’s securities, and sponsored projects at the submitting member’s campuses or its financial auxiliary. Collaboration Collaboration for ARI System proposals shall consist of at least one listed collaborator or cooperator from an academic, governmental or non-profit institution outside of that of the Project Director AND either a subcontract of the current proposal to that institution or for the proposal to be receiving financial support via matching funds. Collaborator Collaborators are scientifically and/or practically qualified individuals with key expertise and responsibility for completion of a significant portion of a project’s goals and objectives. Cooperator Cooperators are scientifically and/or practically qualified individuals with specific expertise in project topics that provide advice, guidance and consultation to the project director and co-principal investigators. Co-principal Investigator Co-principal investigators are scientifically qualified individuals with specific project related expertise who share responsibility with project directors for all aspects of a project. 4 Executive Director The executive director is the individual responsible for the ARI’s overall administration, day-to-day operational management and oversight, promotion and program and financial accountability. Faculty Release Faculty release is a funded reduction in the academic teaching workload of a specific faculty member. In-kind In-kind refers to any support which is NOT cash and includes goods, services and equipment donated by third parties regardless of the taxable status of the donation as a gift. Key Personnel Key personnel are project personnel with significant identified project related responsibilities. Match Match or matching funds are donated or pledged cash and/or in-kind goods, services or equipment of verifiable financial value other than that originating from the CSU State Budget General Fund allocation. Member Campus Member campuses are those CSU campuses with colleges of agriculture; California State University, Fresno (Fresno State), California Polytechnic University, San Luis Obispo (Cal Poly, SLO), California State Polytechnic University, Pomona (Cal Poly, Pomona), and California State University, Chico (Chico State). Pending Match Pending match is any ARI project related cash or in-kind match funding request that has not yet received final funding notification. Project Director The project director is the individual ultimately responsible for all pre and post award proposal and project management including, but not limited to, proposal preparation and submission, securing and verifying appropriate external match, budget management, coordination of research and personnel activities, timely submission of research and financial reports, information dissemination, and relevant technology transfer. Sponsored Project Cash with some term or condition attached or other deliverable. System Funding System funding is ARI research funding annually awarded solely on a competitive basis to address priority statewide applied agricultural and natural resources issues. It is available to any qualified ARI member campus faculty or research scientist. 5 PROPOSAL FORMAT General Information The ARI provides public funds that are annually matched at least one-to-one with industry/agency resources to fund high impact applied agricultural and natural resources research, development, and technology transfer, as well as related public and industry education and outreach. Its projects and programs improve the economic efficiency, productivity, profitability, and sustainability of California agriculture and its allied industries. ARI programs lead to consumer sensitive and environmentally sound food and agriculture systems and foster public confidence in food safety and agricultural research and production systems. Through a system of university-industry partnerships, the ARI focuses on finding immediate and practical solutions for high-priority challenges in the following research areas: ‰ Agricultural business ‰ Biodiversity ‰ Biotechnology ‰ Food safety, nutrition, processing, & new product development ‰ Natural resources ‰ Production & cultural practices ‰ Public policy ‰ Water & irrigation technology Additional information can be obtained from the ARI web site at http://ari.calpoly.edu. 2. Types of Campus Funding A. Seed Funding Eligibility Length of Award Maximum funding Number of Awards Available Matching funding required Timeline Project Director must be a first year tenure-track faculty member in a non-endowed position 1 year $5,000 Maximum of 4 per year none special – see Timelines in section 10. B. New Investigator Funding Eligibility Length of Award Maximum funding Project Director must be a first through fourth year tenuretrack faculty member; Project Director is not eligible if he/she has received or concurrently receives a Campus Competitive Award maximum of 2 years $20,000 per year 6 Number of Awards Available Matching funding required Timeline Maximum of 4 per year minimum of 75% with 20% being cash regular – see Timelines in Section 10. C. Campus Competitive Funding Eligibility Length of Award Maximum funding Number of Awards Available Matching funding required Timeline all tenure-track faculty and lecturers on AY appointments > 85% maximum of 3 years there is no maximum, however due to limited resources, it is suggested that projects stay under $50,000 per year except for one-time capital equipment expenses the number of awards is dependent on available funding each year minimum of 110% total with 25% being cash regular – Timelines in Section 10. 3. Matching Funds Matching funds must be project related. This may take the form of direct cost share, serial or parallel studies, or some other justifiable support but must be fully explained in the ARI proposal. Additionally, if the work performed with matching funds is not a direct cost share, care must be taken to demonstrate the scope of work to be done under each form of support and relationships between these components. Both the narrative and the budget sections must reflect this support. As an example, if support has already been received to perform objectives 1, 2 and 3, please explain that the ARI funding will be used to support additional new objectives 2a, 2b, 2c, 4 and 5. Matching funds for the first year of an awarded proposal must be received between July 1, 2004 and December 16, 2005. Awards are not made based on the availability of matching funds; however, if matching funds do not arrive for an awarded proposal by December 16, 2005, that award will be cancelled and the awarded funds will be carried forward to the following funding year. Matching funds for subsequent funded years of multi-year proposals must also be received no later than December 15 of that funding year and are a necessary condition for project augmentation by ARI funds. Matching funds can be of three types and combinations are acceptable as stated previously: sponsored project, cash gift, and gift in-kind. (see Glossary for definitions) For a further 7 explanation of the Cal Poly College of Agriculture Policies and Guidelines for receipt of matching funds, please refer to Attachment A. 4. Indirect Charges Pursuant to ARI policy approved by the Board of Governors regarding indirect charges, the ARI does not allow the imposition of any indirect charges to funding projects, contracts, subcontracts, and/or the transfer of portions of a project budget between colleges, centers, campuses, university systems, or other public or private agencies. 5.

Abstract/Impact/Summary Page Provide a brief summary (350 words or fewer, written for a generalist to understand) that describes the research and its benefit to society and/or the industry, that can also be used for promotion. The abstract/impact/summary page is separate from the narrative. 12 12. Narrative Proposal narratives are limited to no more than 10 single-spaced pages (excluding the checklist, signature, summary, budget, timeline, and other attachment pages) and should include the following: A. Brief Statement of the Problem/Issue (worth 20 points) Describe the problem or issue being addressed and explain why it is a high-priority for California agriculture; what is the anticipated economic impact of addressing the issue as the proposal suggests; and what are the short-term, intermediate and/or long-term benefits of conducting this research. Describe how this project is unique or supports the research of others. B. Statement of Methodology (worth 20 points) Provide a statement of the purpose of the research, a list of the research objectives, and a description of the research activities. Include the experimental design and the method of data collection and data analysis. A timeline of major activities (see Attachment 4) should outline the start and the end date of each activity. Dissemination should be included as an activity. C. Dissemination Plan (worth 10 points) Each plan must contain a detailed account of the actions that will be taken to disseminate project results to the California agricultural industry. A copy of all dissemination manuscripts must be submitted to the executive director’s office within thirty days of its first presentation for ARI publication and promotion. In any news release or public conference initiated by the issuance of any news release, during the conduct of any public conference, and/or within the release of any publication, newsletter and/or project summary the following statement shall be included: “Partial funding for this project has been made available by the California State University Agricultural Research Initiative (ARI)”. It is expected that major effort will be made to provide relevant information to California farmers, ranchers, agribusiness concerns and other relevant stakeholder groups. While professional journal publications, attendance and presentations at professional meetings, and other service to one’s discipline are strongly encouraged, involvement in these activities alone does not constitute a complete ARI dissemination plan, because California farmers’, ranchers’, and agribusiness concerns typically do not receive such publications or participate in such activities. Examples of dissemination activities acceptable for ARI projects are the following: Events ƒ Conferences, seminars, workshops, or field days ƒ Continuing education professional programs Publications ƒ California State University Agricultural Research Initiative (CSU/ARI) annual report ƒ California State University Agricultural Research Initiative (CSU/ARI) web site ƒ California Agricultural Technology Institute (CATI) Update articles 13 ƒ ƒ ƒ ƒ ƒ ƒ ƒ Newsletter articles Technical reports, research bulletins, circulars, or fact sheets Interim reports of research in progress Articles in popular trade journals and other publications Articles in refereed journals Books Monographs Presentations ƒ Posters ƒ Video/photographic materials ƒ Industry meetings ƒ other Internet site D. Impact/Industry Support Statement (worth 20 points) Describe the value of the proposed research to California agriculture and its related industries. A brief economic analysis will provide the necessary framework for evaluating the proposal’s balance between funding sources and scope of work. Identify the commitment of industry to this research by providing information about current involvement of industry in the research, by explaining how the research is prioritized by the industry; and by identifying the amount of money industry will provide in support of your research. Outline the steps taken to create collaborations and to secure external funding for the proposed research. E. Staffing (worth 15 points) Identify the project director and all co-principal investigator(s) as well as all collaborator(s), cooperator(s) and key personnel, including their institutional affiliation, position title, specific expertise and their respective specific project responsibilities. For each of the above personnel, the following should be included: 1. A statement of roles and responsibilities, 2. A statement of each person’s time commitment, and 3. A curriculum vitae or resume for all key personnel. (as attachments – not part of the 10 page limit). When the first RFP for this Initiative came out, our Dean and the ARI Board of Governors indicated their preference for proposals with strong components of student time, both graduate and undergraduate. Also, faculty time commitments during the academic year should come from release time, if possible, because additional workload for faculty could have adverse impacts on the primary mission of the College – teaching students. These preferences have remained in effect and are now supported through a system of bonus points in the evaluation process. (see Attachment 7A) F. Budget and Justification (worth 15 points) Provide a complete budget narrative justification for each budget line item. (The budget pages themselves are submitted as attachments and do not count as part of the 10 page limit.) Additionally, use the Excel spreadsheet format provided at: 14 http://ari.calpoly.edu/rfp.htm (see attachment 5 for an example) to communicate your funding needs and the use of your matching funds. If you propose a multiple year project, provide a complete budget for each year per sponsor. Budgets will be evaluated based on the relationship between resources requested and work proposed (i.e., level of funding requested relative to work performed, appropriateness for proposed work, and efficient use of funds). 13. Seed Funding Proposals This limited funding is available to a maximum of 4 new faculty members of the College of Agriculture and is intended to help with whatever costs may be associated with each individual’s plan for incorporating research, and preferably future ARI projects, into their professional growth plan here at Cal Poly. There is a 3-page limit for the narrative section of these proposals. This does not include the signature page, checklist, timeline, budget page, CV or other references and attachments. To the extent possible, describe your intended 5-year research goals and your recent research experience. Explain how these goals fit the scope of the ARI priority areas described at http://ari.calpoly.edu/classification.htm Describe any thoughts you have regarding merging your teaching activities, students (both undergraduate and graduate) and your research interests. List any professional societies to which you currently belong as well as any to which you think you ought to join. As an alternative to a Statement of Methodology, please outline your plan of work and timeline for the activities you would like to accomplish using ARI Seed Funding. Explain how these activities and expenses are critical to the current phase of your professional growth and development here at Cal Poly. Please use the same budget form as the other proposals. The same type of budget justification is also necessary. Most types of expenses can be justified, even added compensation, if it is for research or even grant-writing. Are there professional meetings to which it would be in your best interest to go and make or reinforce connections with colleagues or industry that cannot be funded from other sources? Travel is another common budget category for these funds. Supplies and student assistants round out the top categories. Proposals will be evaluated by the same Technical Review Committee as the other types of funding, but will be judged on their alignment with the ARI priority areas, clarity of vision for professional growth and development, applicability of proposal to that long term plan, and budget appropriateness (that the budget matches what is trying to be accomplished).
