Dalhousie has updated the Operations & Maintenance (O & M) Plan for Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) funded research projects. The updated O & M Plan was developed to more adequately address O & M support for CFI projects, respond to changes in the CFI Infrastructure Operating Fund (IOF) system, and address the underutilization of IOF funds at Dalhousie.
The Operations & Maintenance Response Fund (O&MRF) is a part of the updated O & M Plan for CFI Projects. We are now ready to offer the first O & M Response Fund competition. Researchers with a CFI-funded research project and in need of O & M funding are eligible to apply. Application requests are expected to be between $1000 - $5000 (total) over a 1 to 3 year period. Approximately 10 – 15 applications are expected to be funded per year. Click here to access the guidelines, application and for more details.
Researchers in need of O & M support for their CFI-funded infrastructure should complete an application form and submit to their Dean and/or Hospital VPR by May 26. The Dean/Hospital VPR will prioritize the applications and are asked to submit to the Vice-President Research office by June 4.
