1 Introduction

SC Financial Assistance Award recipients are required to provide scientific and technical products and a public Final Technical Report to OSTI through E-Link. The OSTI.gov portal makes this information publicly available. Awardees are also required to report research products as part of their annual Research Performance Progress Report (RPPR), which generates a Public Progress Report. The PAMS/E-Link system integration streamlines and enhances the process of reporting scientific and technical products. 

There are three places in which you may navigate to E-Link from PAMS:  

  • Progress Report 
  • Renewal Proposal Products 
  • Award Folder
