The PERA system launched on October 7th, and the Grants, Agreements, IACUC and Biosafety modules have now been implemented. All things considered, the implementation has been a huge success. An implementation of this magnitude is not without its challenges, and SPS and the PERA teams have appreciated the patience of the Purdue community as they have worked through many changes and opportunities.
SPS has made good progress toward ensuring data are accurate and available. Some key metrics are now available on the Data page of the SPS website: Data – Sponsored Program Services – Purdue University. Once all the required data are available, SPS will complete converting reports. Converting a $3 billion dollar portfolio and ensuring the integrity of the data are the highest priority and take time and diligence to do correctly.
Many recurring reports have been provided, but some remain outstanding.
SPS apologizes for this inconvenience, and your continued patience is appreciated. Please stay tuned for updates.
