At present the University utilises three bespoke, in-house developed research management systems: - MyProjects: A post award project / document management tool. - MyProjects Proposals: A pre-award proposal costing tool. - MyImpact: A Current Research Information System (CRIS) in which information on publications, research and teaching evaluation activities is collected. My Projects: The University is seeking to replace MyProjects (see 1 above), with an option to replace MyProjects Proposals (see 2 above), dependent upon comparative functionality / integration issues / timescales. The current MyProjects system will soon come to the end of its life and needs to be replaced. It is used to manage all externally funded and strategic projects including research proposals and contracts and enterprise and business development related activities. The system manages around £100m of external funding per annum and has approximately 2000 users. MyProjects Proposals: The MyProjects Proposals system is a bespoke project proposal costing tool. Our current system manages in excess of 3000 proposals per annum with a total value in excess of £600m. The replacement system(s) will be an integral component(s) of the University's 'end to end' project management system and as such will be required to integrate effectively with other established systems including MyImpact, SAP (HR, Finance and Business Warehouse).
