Background

As of Oct. 1, 2020, the UO became a member of the Federal Demonstration Partnership (FDP) for the next five-year phase (Phase VII). The FDP is currently made up of ten major federal grantmaking agencies and 217 institutions that receive federal funding, with the primary goal of reducing faculty administrative burden. As a member, the UO will have access to expedited business processes, participate in pilot demonstration projects, and adopt national best practices that promote this goal for our research community.
