## Description

Argonne National Laboratory is a multi-program science and technology laboratory managed for the Department of Energy. Scientists and engineers at Argonne conduct basic and applied research and development to create scientific knowledge and technological solutions that strengthen the nation's leadership in key areas of science, increase the availability of clean, abundant energy, restore and protect the environment, and contribute to national security.

Argonne manages a complex portfolio of research projects involving multiple stakeholders, including principal investigators, division leaders, financial partners, and subcontractors. The Laboratory's research management lifecycle encompasses work acceptance, risk evaluation, oversight, and subcontracting processes that are critical to ensuring successful project execution while maintaining compliance with federal regulations and institutional policies.

Argonne is exploring commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) and custom solutions for a Research Project Management System (RPMS). The RPMS will be a comprehensive, integrated platform that standardizes and automates work acceptance workflows, enhances risk evaluation processes, and provides robust oversight capabilities for research project management.
