Abdelaziz Bouras, Qatar University:
Research Management: Evolving Reporting and Scoring Capabilities in Research Tracking Systems for Higher Education Institutions #55
This paper presents advancements in Research Tracking Systems (RTS) of Higher Education Institutions, aimed at enhancing the efficiency and reliability of research management within higher education institutions. Building upon prior work, our focus lies on empowering the Post-Award teams with refined features tailored to streamline their processes. Leveraging a user-friendly interface design and integration of the
CrossRef Application Protocol Interface (API), proposals’ external reviewers benefit from enhanced usability and reliability in their evaluations. Furthermore, Lead Project Investigators (LPIs) and Administrators now have access to financial APIs, facilitating informed decision-making regarding project budgets. Additionally, the incorporation of automated reminders for LPIs serves to improve deadline adherence and overall
efficiency. These enhancements alleviate burdens on stakeholders and significantly improve the effectiveness and reliability of research management within our institution.
Through ongoing refinement and evolution of the RTS, we are committed to meeting the evolving demands of research management and supporting the diverse needs of our research community.
