UKRI is replacing the Joint Electronic-Submission (Je-S) system with the Funding Service (TFS).
The platform introduces a new way of submitting applications for UKRI funding and is officially launching for responsive mode calls across Research Councils over the coming weeks (see roll-out schedule below). Research and Innovation Services, in partnership with the Finance Research Hub, has created a TFS SharePoint page to share key points and guidance on this new system. We will continue to update this page as new information becomes available.
Should you have any queries, please do reach out to your contact in the Research Funding Development or the Finance Research Hub ([email protected]).
