Information to beobtained from a RIS
CAFM @ FUB 20140917
12
Researchers
• How much of my budget do I have left in my project?
• Which funding organization does fund projects in my area of research?
• Who of my organization has contacted this funder when about what?
13
Administration
• Are „my“ projects spending their budget in compliance with the fundersregulations?
• Are we in risk of overspending or underutilizing funds?
• Are „my“ project applications promising and in compliance with myuniversity‘s regulations?
• How much third party money have we been awarded and how muchhave we spent this year?
14
Management
• How much third party money have we been awarded to be spent in which year to come (for calculation of KPI-based additional gouvernement funding)?
• How are my departments performing researchwise (for calculation ofKPI-based additional funding of departments)?
• How much third party money have we been awarded and how muchhave we spent this year?
15
Marketing
• Show the research potential of our university to the public
• Help the researchers publish their profiles to the public
• Make sure all information relevant to university rankings are available
16
Funders
• Has the money I gave out been spent according to the agreed terms?

Alternative ways to complete the picture
- The DIY-SolutionBuild the missing components and connections yourself. Then build a Research Cockpit on top that connects to all your data (hope you have a data model that supports this).
- DIY plus ready made ComponentsExtract all research relevant data you have in your existingcomponents and interface them to a professional Research Cockpit you buy from the market. Add additional data directly into this RIS.
- Ready made SolutionForget the components you have, buy a comprehensivenew solution that comes with a data connector to extractback office data. Migrate existing data.
