Frequently Asked Questions

Q:  Does the system interface with any other NIH grants systems?

Q:  How can I better view my grant portfolio?
A:  The SCS OnDemand application is a grants tracking and reporting system for NIH that easily categorizes the IC’s grants portfolio according to each IC’s defined specific needs.
