The COI Administrator will assign the reporter's disclosure form to two levels of review: the reporter’s immediate supervisor and one level above their immediate supervisor (typically this would involve Chair or Dean/Director level review). Reviewers will be notified by system email when a disclosure is assigned to them for review. It is the responsibility of the reviewer to make a recommendation for each of the faculty member's extramural awards to the COI admin if the reporter may have a conflict of interest with an entity.  The final level of review and a final disposition is done by the COI Administrator.  

Home screen

On the header area of the screen, reviewers will see a link for COI Reviewer. A number will also be displayed to indicate the amount of reviews you have pending.

• Click on the COI Reviewer menu
• Click on the My Review Requests link.

 

Reviewer Dashboard

This page is similar to the home screen except that instead of seeing a list of your disclosures it instead shows a listing of disclosures waiting for your review.  You can access your previous reviews from the Review History button.

• Click on the ID number of the disclosure.
• Once reviewed, a disclosure will be moved from this dashboard into your Reviewer History

 

Disclosure review screen

The disclosure review screen combines all the separate screens used during disclosure creation into one convenient page. You will find the page navigation and submit button in the top blue bar instead of on the bottom, where it is located when creating a disclosure.

• Review the information that was provided by the reporter.
• The Add Comment buttons are available for you to use if you want to comment on any answer.
• If the reporter answered any of the screening questions with a "Yes", you as a reviewer are required by the system to make a disposition on each of their new awards.

• You can do this in two ways:
  • Either by scrolling down to the award section
  • Use the Next Required Disposition button located in the top blue bar.
• Disposition options are:
  • No-Conflict – There are no relationships disclosed, or none of the relationships disclosed have the potential to influence the Reporter's objectivity or judgment in fulfilling their Institutional Responsibilities.
  • Potential Conflict - One or more relationships disclosed have the potential to influence the Reporter's objectivity or judgment in fulfilling their Institutional Responsibilities.
  • Mgmt Plan - You recommend that a COI Management Plan be implemented to maintain and monitor the Reporter's objectivity or judgment in fulfilling their Institutional Responsibilities.
  • Unsure - You need assistance from the COI Administrator in determining whether one or more relationships disclosed have the potential to influence the Reporter's objectivity or judgment in fulfilling their Institutional Responsibilities.

• Once all dispositions have been made, the button in the top blue bar that previously said Next Required Disposition is now green and says Complete Review. Click on this button to complete your review and notify the COI administrator that your task has been completed.

         

• A confirmation message will appear in the notification area stating the date that your review was completed. Once you receive this message your task is complete. You can exit the system.
