I work in the area of research evaluation with a focus on developing the collaborative networks needed for UTS to understand and develop its research profile and on consequential institutional submissions to government. This mostly involves coordinating outputs and impact reporting and analysis processes. 

To undertake these reporting processes, UTS relies on a set of systems for which my team acts as the front-end administrators and business owners;
- ResearchMaster is used to administer research projects, agreements and ethics clearances. It has interactions with Neo, CASS and the UTS BI products.
- Symplectic is used for academic profiles at UTS and for the reporting of research publications.
-Figshare is used to house UTS research reports.
- Dimensions, Scival, Incites, Altmetric, Overton and the Lens are used to understand outputs and funding benchmarks globally.

The team are proficient with APIs for all products and for all funders and are at the centre of automation work within the UTS research support community using APIs, in product tools, generative AI and Powerautomate.

The team has rolled out each of these products and their upgrades as well as enterprise-wide projects like the UTS Repository (OPuS) integrations (with the Library) and the ORCID implementation at UTS. Our most recent work is on introducing a new costing and pricing tool into our standard proposals suite and the rollout of this Discovery researcher profile service. The team fields requests for research data and works closely with OQA (on KPIs and rankings), the UTS Library (on researcher development), the CDO and ITU (on the UTS Business Intelligence product and other systems).

We are currently developing data science and data provisioning competencies and are assisting the university by rolling out Figshare for UTS research reports - this should improve discoverability and engagement with UTS reports.

I act as co-convenor for the Australasian Research Management Society's Special Interest Group on Research Information and Reporting with Tania Wilman (from JCU).
