The Pivot-RP user interface is highly customizable, enabling institutions to apply their institutional branding and integrate the system with other institutional resources. Using a wealth of built-in communication tools, research office staff can promote targeted, highly relevant funding opportunities to faculty members, researchers, and other stakeholders. Pivot-RP administrators can set-up recurring funding newsletters, send funding-alert email messages, create groups, embed search results directly on department or research office web page, generate shared calendars, add internal funding opportunities, and more.
Pivot-RP tightly integrates with Esploro, the Ex Libris research information management solution, providing researchers with access and insight into funding opportunities directly from Esploro.
Eyal Kirshner, Ex Libris vice president of research funding solutions, commented, “The research landscape is rapidly changing, and the competition for funding is intensifying. Many institutions are striving to be agile in their response to change while diversifying their funding sources. By bringing together the highly trusted Pivot and Research Professional solutions, we are providing institutions with an exhaustive, in-depth source of funding opportunities and are delivering new avenues for identifying funding. With Pivot-RP, research offices have the means to scale up their support for researchers.”
