Our story

An All-In-One Academic Research Management Solution

OmniStar delivers the essential tools universities need to simplify their research and ethics administration. Our platform integrates everything institutions need to stay organised, efficient, and compliant:

Pre and Post-Award Management

Our comprehensive pre and post-award management capabilities enable institutions to efficiently manage the entire research lifecycle. From streamlining proposal development and submission to handling budget planning and financial tracking, OmniStar keeps everything organised in one place. The platform automates progress reporting and milestone monitoring, making it easy to track project outcomes and deliverables, ensuring nothing is forgotten as critical research progresses.

Ethics and Compliance

Managing research ethics and compliance has never been easier with OmniStar's dedicated tools. The platform simplifies the entire ethics application and review process while maintaining comprehensive compliance records throughout the project lifecycle. Automated progress report scheduling ensures timely updates, while the system can generate compliance certificates and approvals as needed, streamlining what was once a time-consuming manual process.

From tracking new funding opportunities to managing complex application workflows, OmniStar provides the tools needed to succeed.

Security and Integration

Our university research management software prioritises data security and seamless integration:

  • Advanced Security: Role-based access control, audit logging, and encrypted data storage
  • Authentication: Single Sign-On (SSO) and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
  • System Integration: Connect with HR, finance, and other institutional systems
  • Data Protection: Automated backups, redundant data storage, and regular disaster recovery testing
  • Compliance: IRAP assessed and ISO 27001-certified

We couldn't persist in a paper environment. We were looking for a solution that could cover the pre-award and post-award requirements, and we wanted a system that could do ethics as well. And that's where OmniStar ranked above the other options, because it was able to meet both of these requirements with one compatible system.
