The Research Services Agreement (RSA) between UCSF and BCH Oakland provides a mechanism for reimbursing BCH Oakland for their costs on sponsored research at UCSF. A Work Order, as defined in the RSA, allows UCSF to reimburse BCH Oakland for their costs.
In order to request a Work Order, a request form must be submitted to the Subcontracts Team. Included with the request form is a scope of work for the Oakland specific portion, a detailed cost-reimbursable budget for Oakland’s direct costs only, and a budget justification.
