Sponsored Programs and Research Office (SPARO): our administrative hub

We are Denver Heath’s administrative hub providing the administrative, financial and regulatory compliance capacity necessary to manage Denver Health’s research portfolio of approximately $400 million in active grants.

We connect research administration and researcher teams through the application of Lean management principles, which means we apply a systems-focused approach to process improvement and put the investigator experience at the core of continuous improvement for all aspects of our clinical trials.

We ensure comprehensive research and grant compliance in clinical trials while proactively focusing on reducing process waste in all aspects of grant and contracts administration.
