If a company awards a principal investigator a grant, the Industry Alliances Office is the appropriate office on campus to manage executing an agreement between the parties to govern the research relationship. The Industry Alliances Office most likely submitted the proposal to the company, and thus should receive the notice of award and begin working on executing the contract.

However, if the Industry Alliances Office did not submit a proposal, and a proposal needs to be submitted, Principal Investigators should follow this process.
