Learn more about Teaming Agreements (TA)

A contract that formally acknowledges the relationship and participation of two or more parties who are submitting a proposal for research funding to an outside sponsor, such as the Federal government.

Establishing the purpose of each party's participation and which of the parties will be primarily responsible for submitting the proposal and receiving the award, and which party will receive a subaward(s) from the party receiving the award.

Teaming agreements should describe intent and roles and responsibilities only for the preparation of proposal packages. No work should occur under a teaming agreement. If research activities are anticipated, please submit to KR PD as an unfunded collaboration agreement.
