Information entered on the form below will be emailed to a UW-Madison RSP staff member who will work to update the Workday database.
All sponsors undergo research security screening and vetting. Once cleared, they are entered into Workday and loaded into RAMP overnight. Please allow at least two business days for new sponsors to appear in RAMP.
Guidelines for requesting sponsors can be found here.
Note: If you are working with a new entity that is not currently in Workday or RAMP and will serve as a subawardee, please email outgoingsubs@rsp.wisc.edu and include a copy of the subaward's scope of work. We will review the scope to determine whether a subaward is appropriate. If so, we will request the necessary documentation to add the entity to ShopUW+.
If the entity is already in ShopUW+, we can easily add them to RAMP and Workday. However, if we have not previously issued a subaward to the entity—even if they are in ShopUW+—we may still need to request audit documentation to fulfill subrecipient monitoring requirements.
You may continue to use the “Add/Update Subrecipient” request in Workday to initiate the addition of a new subaward entity. However, please note that additional information may be requested at the time of the subaward request to support subrecipient monitoring.
