RGMS Background and Overview

The Research Grants Management System is the NHMRC’s new grants administration, reporting and awarded grants system.  RGMS replaces NHMRC’s previous Research Management Information System (RMIS) and various satellite systems.

RGMS allows users to:

• submit and manage grant applications online and
• maintain a Curriculum Vitae (CV)

RGMS also supports the assessment and peer review processes through dedicated reporting and workflow functions.

RGMS provides important functionality for the Office of the NHMRC.  It improves access to information about the outputs and impact of Australian Government health and medical research funding and streamlines administrative process across all granting schemes.

RGMS is built using ‘Clarity’, a CA (formally known as Computer Associates) web-enabled project and portfolio management system being used by various  Australian Government departments and agencies.
