Case Study: Utah State University boosts proposal volume and award success with Kuali Research

Utah State University boosts proposal volume and win ratio 43% with Kuali

Utah State University was using a homegrown research administration system that lacked modern capabilities, forcing staff to spend excessive time on manual data entry and preventing them from automating workflows. They needed a solution that would streamline processes and allow them to better assist principal investigators with their proposals. The university chose to implement Kuali Research from vendor Kuali.

By implementing Kuali's solution, the university automated document routing, eliminated paper forms, and created specific workflows. This resulted in significant time savings, allowing staff to focus on value-added tasks. The measurable impacts included a 43% increase in their win ratio and record-breaking award volume and revenue over three years, which contributed to the university achieving Carnegie R1 classification.
