As previously communicated, the Research Office has an effort underway, the Research Portal Initiative, to improve process and automation supporting research compliance and administration. A critical component of this initiative is to select modernized software that was developed with an R1 research institution focus, is easy to use and provides advanced integration and data services.
A request for proposal was posted in early April and a requirement of the finalists is an on-campus presentation focused on the faculty and the research community.
Your feedback regarding the finalists is valuable to the long-term success of research at WVU, therefore we invite you to learn more about the proposed systems and attend an on-campus presentation.
We anticipate two-to-three finalists; presentations will last 90 minutes with a 30-minute question-and-answer session. We will send you a survey to provide feedback after the presentations.
The presentations will be held in the Ruby Grand Hall at the Erickson Alumni Center from 1-3 p.m. June 8, 13 and 14; in-person attendance is required.
Register in advance so the survey can be sent to your email address.
