## Abstract

The objective of this Administrative Supplement for a Quality Assurance/Quality Control position
is to ensure high quality submissions to the NCATS prior approval process. The specific aims
are as follows:
 1) Ensure adherence to NIH and NCATS policies regarding CTSA-related submissions to
 NCATS and submissions to the eRA Human Subjects System, and participate in
 process improvement across the CTSA consortium.
 2) Improve the quality of the prior approval submissions across all partner institutions for
 Pilot awards and KL2 projects by reducing inaccurate information and incomplete
submissions
 3) Implement a formal quality review process prior to submission to NCATS.
 4) Develop a centralized management process for submissions to the eRA Human
 Subjects System to ensure consistency, accuracy, and efficiency.
 5) Review and compile data on any problem submission areas and develop corrective
 action plans.
This will be accomplished by having a dedicated Research Navigator who will ensure these
specific aims are implemented and followed not only at Johns Hopkins (JH) but at partner
institutions also. To ensure consistency across JH and University of Maryland, the Research
Navigator position will be split between the two institutions 75% and 25%, respectively, to allow
for a well-coordinated, cohesive, high-quality process.
