Tell Us About It This amazing teams in IMES, OSATT Core, VPF, and RAS worked creatively and collaboratively to solve a tough issue managing a sponsored payment process recently. I was told that "Abigail in particular has really gone above and beyond on this work - not only is she taking the lead on reconciling invoices, POs, and payments for IMES projects, but she’s also taken responsibility for sorting these things out for PIs in other departments. Having a single person handling all of this, especially someone with her high level of skill, has really made the process more efficient and comprehensive." Thank you Abigail, Caroline, Kelley, Richard, and Bernadette so very very much!
