VTRAS Purpose Sample Clauses

VTRAS Purpose. In order to better serve our research community, Virginia Tech is looking for a web-based, electronic research administrative system which will provide for proposal development processing, including a budgeting tool, tracking mechanisms, document management and storage, system-to-system xxxxxx.xxx integration capabilities, and award negotiation processing and tracking. This system should provide the capability to integrate proposal demographic information and award budgets into our SunGard Higher Education Administrative Suite of modules (Banner). This proposed system should also be capable of interfacing with research compliance modules and other Virginia Tech in- house developed software systems which meet administrative needs of the university. Virginia Tech Post-Award management will continue to primarily use our existing Banner administrative system. In the initial implementation of this effort, the University desires to optimize its research administration practices throughout all of its pre-award operations. Such optimization will provide, but not be limited to: improvements in customer service; automation of workflow; automation of budget development; risk avoidance and mitigation; secure data storage and transfer; enhancement of supervisory control capabilities; and an overall goal to build and maintain a research environment at the university that competes with peer institutions. The university seeks to implement an electronic proposal development and submission system which also provides for processing awards from receipt to establishment in our university accounting system. Individual investigators should be able to utilize a web-based system which enables workflows that would move the individual proposal through the approval process appropriate for the specific research being pursued. Research personnel could then monitor the status of all of their proposals from a single portal. The system should also provide for versioning of the proposal documents associated with the tailored workflow for their research and be available for tracking and modification as needed. The University and investigators should be able to maintain profile information, such as biographical sketches, university demographic information, office and laboratory locations, equipment and laboratory availability, etc., in this same single portal environment. The electronic proposal submission system should provide system-to-system integration with xxxxxx.xxx where applicable. F...
