GMSA
The Grants Management and Systems Administration (GMSA) Directorate implements grant management in partnership with and on behalf of the funding directorates of RISA, namely Knowledge Fields Development (KFD), International Science Liaison (ISL), Human and Institutional Capacity Development (HICD) and Applied and Industrial Research and Innovation (AIRI). Grant management can broadly be divided into pre- and post-award activities.
GMSA aims to:
- Develop and maintain cost-effective, efficient grant management processes;
- Simplify business processes and interfaces;
- Improve the IT systems critical to GMSA business; and
- Simplify data retrieval and reporting. The NRF online and Phoenix systems are critical to the efficacy of GMSA. The long-term vision is to replace the NRF online system with InfoEd, in line with the RIMS InfoEd project.
