ARMS University Contracting Working Party Questionnaire – We value your input!
Through the Directors of Research Special Interest Group, the ARMS University Research Contracting Working Party was established to develop the principles, resources and frameworks that support efficient University to University contracting of research agreements. In order to obtain a better understanding of the pain points, opportunities and best practices, the working group has designed a survey based around the Multi Institutional Agreement (MIA) as the document to bind them all. It is anticipated that the survey results should give us some enormously beneficial insights and acuity in helping understand the issues that Research Management Professionals are facing.
Follow the link ARMS University Research Contracting Working Party: Questionnaire #1 to commence the survey.
The ARMS University Research Contracting Working Party will, through the course of the year, move to other parts of the research contracting lifecycle but felt that this is an important starting point.
Responses from offices that get involved in the contracting process including your legal office and knowledge transfer office are encouraged. We understand that processes differ across institutions and so we have not been prescriptive. It is anticipated that some of you may wish to seek feedback from other parts of the University separate to the Research Office; those offices need only comment on the questions they feel are relevant to them.
Responses by 18 February 2022 are appreciated.
We will be happy to provide you anonymised responses particular to your organisation – while we are working across the collective, you may find it helpful to inform research management provision within your institution.
Dr Jodi Clyde-Smith on behalf of the ARMS University Research Contracting Working Party.
