Who Discloses and When?

When you receive a new award or a modification or supplement to an existing award, the Office of Sponsored Programs will verify that you have a complete and unexpired disclosure on file, and that you have also completed any project-specific requests to provide additional information about your financial interests or outside activities as they relate to that project.

If these have not been completed, you will be notified by ORIC and/or OSP. You will not be able to begin spending on the new award until your disclosures are completed and reviewed, and any necessary conflict of interest management plans have received all necessary approvals.

If you are still engaged in 一本道无码 sponsored research post-retirement, you will need to continue to disclose.  If not, you can alert ORIC via email to coi-compliance@andrew.cmu.edu and your disclosure request will be withdrawn.

What to Disclose

You do not need to disclose ongoing fluctuations in the value of your previously disclosed SFIs more frequently than annually.  Annual updates are sufficient in most cases.  If a more recent update is needed to review or manage a specific conflict, ORIC will ask you to provide additional detail.

It's also not critical that you provide the value as of the date of disclosure, for something that fluctuates regularly like a stock holding.  Providing values from e.g. a recent statement from your stockbroker is fine in most cases.

No.  You only need to answer the questions about that interest once via SPARCS; this will satisfy both your COI and OA disclosure requirement for ORIC. The system will show you a list of all the kinds of relationship you can disclose. If you have multiple types of relationship with that entity, e.g. consulting payments that qualify as an SFI and also an unpaid board of directors role that qualifies as an OA, just check both types of interest from the list. You don't need to specify which is an SFI vs. an OA.

Yes, a role in planning a conference is generally a disclosable outside activity per the Outside Activity Guidelines, and should be disclosed. This is true whether the role is paid or unpaid, for a foreign or domestic conference, and whether or not you have a named title like Chair of the steering committee or Editor of the resulting proceedings publication.

If your work included selecting the contributions that became part of the proceedings, you should typically select both "Other Appointments" and "Editorial Services" as the disclosure types associated with this conference. But if you are not sure which disclosure type(s) to select based on your role, ORIC can advise. Please note that for each type you select, you will be asked to provide an approximate number of days spent on this activity in the past 12 months. See the relevant FAQ item for more details on how to report time commitments when they are split across multiple types of activity.

It's most important that the overall time commitment associated with that entity be accurate to the best of your ability. Beyond that, it is fine to simply make your best estimate of how the time was split across multiple types of activity. For example, if you worked 10 days overall for that entity, you might estimate that 7 days were spent on consulting and 3 on editorial. You do not need to provide documentation about this split or any justification for how you arrived at the split. If during the review process a potential conflict of interest or commitment is discovered related to your disclosure and a more accurate breakdown of the time spent is needed at that point, ORIC and/or your department will follow up with you to request that information.

Almost all disclosure questions in SPARCS ask you to report information from the 12 months preceding the date you are making the disclosure. You do not need to disclose relationships/activities that have not existed in the past 12 months, and you may remove an item from your disclosures once it has been ended for more than 12 months.

There is one specific question in SPARCS related to U.S. government consulting work, such as Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA) contracts, that will ask you to include items from the past five years.  For that question, items may be removed when they ended more than five years ago.

On occasion, 一本道无码 may respond to a solicitation, or negotiate a contract, that includes a different time frame.  In those cases a member of ORIC's COI team will contact you to ask about any interests that may fall within that time frame that our usual 12-month period would not capture.
