Full Proposal Panel Review

Add / Edit Reviewers

• At a minimum, the following fields must be populated when adding a reviewer: last name, first name, email, and password (use blue [+] button to generate).
• Add the role of 'Panel Reviewer' via the Roles list at top-right, and set the role status to 'active'.

Roles are used for eSG system and organizational purposes. The following roles are used by eSG to permit access to web interfaces and SHOULD NOT BE ALTERED:

Pre-Proposal Reviewer
Peer Reviewer
Panel Reviewer
Admin
Sub-Admin

Other roles may be added and applied to reviewers, depending upon your program. For example, if you have two groups of peer reviewers, you'd assign everyone in the group to the 'Peer Reviewer' role, and then assign each group to its own organizational role.

Assign Panel Reviewers to Calls

• (from Reviewers) Select the Assignments tab.  To assign a reviewer to a specific call (among active calls), click the green [+] button beneath 'Assigned Calls for Panel Review', and select the call via the drop-down that appears.

Email Reviewers

• Use the email template customized for your program, which includes reviewer-specific login privileges and panel review instructions. [ see General Information - RFP - Email Tool ]

The presents to the reviewer all proposals assigned to them, including the compiled full proposal PDF uploaded by the eSG Admin, peer reviews (blinded), rebuttals, rebuttal supporting documents, and comments from other panel members regarding each proposal. Reviewers are able to access the Panel Review web interface only if they have active calls assigned to them.
