Research Portfolio Manager

 

Whilst the Portfolio Manager was developed primarily for reporting under the Research Quality Framework (RQF), it will be used to support the Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) initiative. The ERA will replace the now defunct RQF with a streamlined, internationally recognised and transparent research quality assurance system.

The ERA initiative, to be developed by the ARC in conjunction with the DIISR will assess research quality using a combination of metrics and expert review by committees comprising experienced, internationally-recognised experts.

It is important to keep your information in Portfolio Manager as up to date as possible, especially where researchers are involved in groups/Centres. This information is often used for statistical purposes. It can also be used for other purposes such as supporting grant applications, research group and centre reporting and expertise management.
