A CRIS (Current Research Information System) is used to manage an institution's research information and outputs. It acts as an academic CV for the whole institution. A CRIS integrates data from various systems, allows complex workflows, and provides services for researchers and administrators. It covers the full research lifecycle from funding to publications to impact. Content is standardized, connected, and can be analyzed, reused for various purposes, and transported to external systems. A CRIS aims to provide a single point of access to showcase an institution's research capabilities.
