NSF is working on a New Awards System…Why?
• Current system is old and outdated from a technology standpoint• Want to take advantage of new technology• Current system is based on an outdated “paper” process• Opportunity to Standardize, Streamline and Simplify• Ensures that NSF is compliant with Uniform Guidance and other policies• Create an easy-to-use, user-friendly system• Costly to maintain current system• Difficult to add enhancements• Increase connectivity to other NSF systems

National Science Foundation
Why create a new Award Notice?
• Opportunity to Standardize, Streamline and Simplify• Ensures that NSF is compliant with Uniform Guidance and other policies• Create easy-to-read layout• Take advantage of new technology• Allow NSF to cc PIs and co-PIs on Award Notices• Simplify processing for award-making Divisions• Less reliance on code-changes/reprogramming• Less prone to issues due to technology upgrades
