NSF developed the RPPR as a service within <a href="http://Research.gov">Research.gov</a>. The
service provides a common portal for the research community to manage
and submit annual project reports to the National Science Foundation
(NSF) and to partner agencies. This service replaced NSF's annual and
interim project reporting capabilities which resided in the FastLane
System.
Complete information about NSF's implementation of the Research
Performance Progress Report (RPPR) may be found at the following
website: <a href="http://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/rppr/index.jsp">http://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/rppr/index.jsp</a>.
Burden on the Public: The Foundation estimates that an average of
6.6 hours is expended for each report submitted. An estimated 120,000
reports are expected during the course of one year for a total of
30,000 public burden hours annually.
