The importance of research in higher education is soaring. It's a key driver for reputation, student recruitment, and even revenue generation.
However, research projects are becoming intricate, demanding tighter deadlines and collaboration across diverse locations. The rise of external funding from public and private entities adds further pressure on timely delivery, financial reporting, and adherence to regulations. Unfortunately, many institutions lack the necessary procedures, systems, and commercial expertise to manage these complex research projects efficiently.
