In September, the Research Policy Analysis & Coordination (“RPAC”) unit launched the Kuali Research software suite to simplify administrative processes associated with extramurally-funded contracts and grant awards issued to UCOP.

Kuali Research is designed for UCOP divisions, departments or units that submit proposals or receive extramural funding for research or service projects. It integrates with Oracle PPM and other UC systems, and provides principal investigators and administrative staff with:

• Real-time views of contract and grant portfolios for extramurally-funded projects, including copies of proposals, agreement documents and outgoing sub-awards and multi-campus awards
• Automatic notifications for upcoming report due dates
• Single sign-on compatible approval of outgoing proposals
• Routing of approved proposals to RPAC for final institutional review and approval

RPAC will provide hands-on training and tutorial videos to help departments to use Kuali Research for proposal submission.

For questions regarding use and access to Kuali Research, or about the UCOP process for seeking and accepting extramurally-funded awards, please contact Melissa Waver in RPAC’s Contracts & Grants Operations Office at ucopawards@ucop.edu.
