ResearchUVA is an in-house-developed software platform changing the way we pursue, manage and think about sponsored programs

The business of research at UVA includes more than $1B in proposal activity and $370M in awards annually. ResearchUVA is at the heart of UVA’s continued success and growth in research. Through it, we transact business and analyze data related to our sponsored programs to ensure we:

Maintain the value of our research enterprise by tracking our existing activities to see how efficiently and effectively we are managing our resources;
 
Create more value and growth by enabling us to identify new opportunities, expand existing ones, and facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration.

We are building ResearchUVA for and with the people who use the system

ResearchUVA users come from across the University: faculty, research and financial administrators, and senior administrative leaders (institutionally and within schools), representing a broad set of individuals within the research enterprise. The system will continue to evolve over time, in response to user feedback and the strategic priorities of our University. The project is currently funded by the Strategic Investment Fund and project oversight is provided by Organizational Excellence and by the Research Administration Improvement Team.

I’ve had great success showing faculty what they can view in ResearchUVA and how they can track the progress of proposals, notices of award, check payments, non-funded agreements, etc. They’ve all responded positively and want to see more.

Improving Accountability
Improving Accountability
The transparency of ResearchUVA improves accountability. We know where proposals are in process, who’s responsible for doing what, and where and when we need to take action. We didn’t have that before ResearchUVA.

Generating opportunities

ResearchUVA enables the faculty to spend less time trying to figure out where their funds are and how much are left, and more time spending them wisely and generating ideas for additional funding.
