COI reports undergo a review process to identify whether a conflict of interest exists and, if it does, to manage the conflict. More information on the COI review process, standard management plan terms, and guidance can be found on Research Services. If the review process identifies a need for a management plan, the COI team will create a plan and send you an email requesting to review and sign your management plan in RASS. Follow the link in the email or navigate to your management plan from your tasks in RASS.
