The Canada Foundation for Innovation Awards Management System (CAMS) is the secure online portal that allows universities, colleges, research hospitals and non-profit research institutions to apply for CFI funding and assists them in managing the full life cycle of a CFI-funded project.
An update to the CFI Awards Management System (CAMS) was applied on March 30. You can find details at Innovation.ca. If you notice any new issues with CAMS, please inform the CFI at help.aide [at] innovation.ca.
The 2021 operational status question and project progress reports (PPRs) are now accessible in CAMS. The deadline for answering the operational status question and submitting a PPR is June 30, 2021. Respondents filling out a PPR for a project submitted before October 2020 will first be asked to reclassify their project using the Canadian Research and Development Classification.
