Sec.  37.565  May I use a hybrid instrument that provides fixed support for only a portion of a project?

    Yes, for a research project that is to be carried out by a number of 
participants, you may award a TIA that provides for some participants to 
perform under fixed-support arrangements and others to perform under 
expenditure-based arrangements. This approach may be useful, for 
example, if a commercial firm that is a participant will not accept an 
agreement with all of the post-award requirements of an expenditure-
based award. Before using a fixed-support arrangement for that firm's 
portion of the project, you must judge that it meets the criteria in 
Sec.  37.305.
