Research Outputs

InfoEd Global's Research Outputs is a research output management tool designed for institutions, principal investigators, researchers, administrators, and coordinators. It supports the collection, packaging, reporting, and dissemination of post-publication assets, with the goal of reducing administrative time while meeting institutional, investigator, and governmental requirements. The platform includes the GENIUS® Expertise Management Solution as an integral component, which maintains faculty CV and profile data across the broader InfoEd eRA Solutions Suite.

The system is configurable to institutional needs while functioning out of the box, and is used by institutions worldwide to quantify research performance, justify government funding, promote university accomplishments, and build publication repositories.
