for Academic and Research Institutions

Today’s university and academic/research community is experiencing increasing requirements for financial accountability and visibility. Forward-thinking administrators will leverage the changing regulatory and accountability landscape to their advantage.  At the other end of the scale, the less adaptive administrations will see their once-stable funding and grant flow erode as sponsors seek new institutions to meet these increased reporting requirements; in some recent cases, embarrassing public headlines have underscored inadequate reporting and oversight of grant money.  Now, easy access to data reporting and analytics of project status, budget, resource consumption, and new proposal metrics takes on a new prominence for administrators, principal investigators, and financial departments.  Viador gives you the visibility to ensure efficient, compliant academic operations.
