Monash University

Monash University’s research administration was supported by a diverse range of systems which were not integrated and bespoke. To address these inefficiencies, Monash implemented a new Integrated Research Administration System (IRAS).

Newton Group provided workshop facilitation, scoping, business and process analysis services in the requirements phase of the IRAS project. Specifically, this entailed:

  • Working with the Program Director of Monash to produce program scope documentation
  • Designing and facilitating process discovery workshops with staff from Monash
  • Eliciting and documenting level 1, 2 and 3 process flows for the main activities in the Grants, Contracts, Ethics, and Web Profiles streams of the IRAS program
  • Eliciting and documenting business and functional requirements for the Grants, Contracts, Ethics, Reporting and Web Profiles streams of the IRAS program
  • Preparing and completing requirements traceability matrices for these streams to ensure requirements delivery across the program
