What is an IPA, and how do I get University approval for it?
An IPA is an Intergovernmental Personnel Assignment. It allows an AU employee to work at a federal site and have their salary and benefits be provided by the agency, but paid through the university. The agency will require a proposal and budget to execute this type of agreement. The proposal should be budgeted and routed through OSP before agreeing with the agency on firm figures. IPAs do not incur indirect costs. Some academic units consider any type of assignment to another organization an IPA and request that it be budgeted and routed through OSP. Consult your Dean’s office for the process if the IPA is for an organization other than a federal agency.
