Early in the design of the Kuali Financial Systems (KFS), it became obvious that the pre-award Research Administration components are sufficiently weighty to deserve a separate project. This realization was the genesis of Kuali Research Administration (KRA). Several of the same KFS partners that contributed to its initial success are now partners in KRA as well. They intend to participate in and benefit from the same collaborative model that each Kuali project employs.
The following KRA founding partners are contributing functional and technical resources and staff to coordinated project teams:
- University of Arizona
- Cornell University and the Weill Medical College
- Indiana University
- Massachusetts Institute of Technology
- Michigan State University
- Colorado State University
- University of California, Davis
- Coeus Consortium
- Huron Consulting Group
