[labnetwork] How do you charge SBIRs?

[Cornwall, Bob]

Iulian, 

At Penn State we are required to ask if this is government pass through and we get the grant number from the company and treat like a subcontract with internal government rates.  The government always gets the lowest rate.  If work from another university is industry funded, we use industry rates, if government funded we use internal/Govt rates.  SBIRS would receive our internal rate which is the lowest rate charged.

Good Morning,

As most of you probably do, I have three rate structures:
-Internal
-Other academic/government
-Corporate (for profit)

I am writing to solicit your input on how you handle SBIRs (where funds go from the government to a for-profit entity). Do you charge the government rate, the corporate rate, or something else? What rationale do you use when you decide? If you offer the government rate, do you require any "proof" that SBIR funds ate indeed used?

Thank you very much,

Iulian
