Description

Research Professional - online subscription to a funding intelligence
service
Three providers were invited to demo their systems and provide the University with a quotation. This included our current provider (Research Professional) and the two new providers (Idox - Grant Finder and FCS Associates). Services offered were assessed by a group comprised of from RIS and the academic community (~8 representatives). Research Professional is offering a vastly enhanced service to that which we currently subscribe that will benefit our
research community in line with our KPI to increase research income.
The other two providers could not offer the breadth of funding
intelligence provided by Research Professional.
