 A general re-budget is the reallocation of funds from one spending category to another spending category that better reflects the project requirements. General re-budgets may or may not require sponsor approval depending on the terms of the award and the amount being re-budgeted.

###  Requesting a General Re-Budget

 To request a re-budget, create a folder in the most recent GMAS request for “Re-budget \[Date (Month/Year)\]. Upload the revised budget and justification to this folder. Notify the OSP Awards Management portfolio owner for the award that a revised budget is needed.

###  Information Needed:

- Revised budget and justification
- Revised SOW, if applicable
- Submission information if sponsor approval required
- Other information as required by the sponsor, department, or university

- The OSP Awards Management team reviews re-budget requests and corresponds via e-mail with any questions or clarifications.
- The OSP Awards Management team submits to the sponsor, as applicable, and notes approval in GMAS.
- The OSP Operations team initiates a revision on the GMAS account.
