Alliance Research Indicators is the unified web application used by researchers, center administrators, and MEL specialists across the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT — and the broader CGIAR ecosystem — to capture, validate, and analyze structured evidence of research outcomes. It serves as the user-facing layer connecting STAR, TIP, PRMS, and AICCRA into a single, coherent reporting environment.

Key capabilities

  • 11-tab result metadata — capture general information, partners, evidence files, OICR details, IP rights, capacity sharing, policy change, innovation details, geographic scope, alliance alignment, and result links in one place
  • CLARISA-controlled vocabularies — all institutions, countries, SDGs, levers, and impact areas are sourced from the canonical CLARISA taxonomy so results are comparable across platforms and fundable against global frameworks
  • Cross-platform federation — results link to their counterparts in STAR, TIP, PRMS, and AICCRA; duplicate detection (HTTP 409) prevents double-reporting
  • Role-aware access — four personas (Researcher, Center Admin, MEL Regional Expert, Cross-Platform Consumer) each see and can act on the right data
  • Real-time notifications — WebSocket-powered presence and alerts keep your team in sync as results move through review
