Request for Information for Research Registration and Ethical Approval System

Background to the Project / Contract:

UCL considers high standards of research integrity across all of its activities to be of the utmost importance. Two key areas are ensuring that research is conducted ethically and that research complies with relevant data protection legislation. These areas are supported by two existing governance processes: data protection registration and ethical review.

The UCL is looking to purchase a system that will support both processes by creating a single record for applicants linked to their application, and enable the seamless and simultaneous review through both processes on submission.

The system will need to support multiple reviews for each application, filtering the application to appropriate reviews based on information submitted. The system should also link with other supporting systems to create a single institutional record of research and approvals.

Users (both staff and students) will need to access the system using a single-sign-on.

The requirement:

Additional information: The process will be managed via our In-Tend system. If you are interested in participating in this Tender you will need to register your company on In-tend and then express an interest in the opportunity. The Tender documentation will then be released to you.
