Summary/Organization
What is Kuali?
Kuali Foundation
is a non-profit organizationresponsible for sustaining andevolving administrative software that meets the needs of allCarnegie Class institutions.
Members
Colleges, universities, commercialfirms and interestedorganizations that share acommon vision of open, modular,and distributed systems for theirsoftware requirements.
Goal
Bring the proven functionality of legacy applications to the ease and universality of online services.
Roots
Kuali began as an open/community source initiative to create a financial system (KFS) for higher education.
Kuali Organization
What is the Coeus? What is the Consortium?
• Coeus Coeus is one of the first cradle-to grave research administration systems in the nation. MIT created the software to assist their OSP, departments and faculty with proposal development, and pre- and post-award management. Coeus includes Proposal and Budget Development, Grants.gov S2S submission, Proposals, Awards, IRB, Subcontracts, Negotiation, Person, Conflict of Interest and Report Tracking.
• The Coeus ConsortiumThe Coeus Consortium was established in July 2005 to provide a shared model of support for the members’ use of Coeus. The Consortium is currently comprised of over 50 institutions at various levels of membership (Basic, Development and Steering Committee).
Kuali Coeus Roadmap
• In October, the Coeus Steering Committee developed a product roadmap and technology transition plan for the next major release of Coeus – Version 5.0, which will be released as KC 3.1.
• View the Kuali Coeus Roadmap at: http://www.coeus.org
Kuali Coeus Roadmap
• Highlights– Architecture advances for Coeus– Collaborative software development model
(Kuali) combined with a proven model of support (Coeus)
– Full convergence of the products in 2011– Commitment to best practices in research
administration
What is KC?
• Cradle-to-grave research administration system, based on MIT’s Coeus:– Preaward (proposals, budgets, Grants.gov)– Postaward (contracts, grants, negotiations,
report tracking, subcontracting)– Research Risks (IRB, IACUC, COI, etc)
• Can be linked with your financial system (KFS or others)
How Did We Get Here?
• KFS Contracts & Grants– Routing Form– Budget Builder– Proposal– Award– No Grants.gov submission– No Research Compliance
Guiding Principles
• Identify “best of breed” solutions from among partners as base for each module
• Develop Common Kuali User Interface
• Leverage Kuali Rice architecture and development standards (nervous system, enterprise notification, enterprise workflow and service bus)
• Functional Councils and the Subject Matter Experts Drive Functionality and Scope
• Technology Roadmap Committee governs Technical Standards across all Kuali Projects
Guiding Principles
• Maximize commonality of business practices
• Make configurable as much as possible given time and resource constraints
• Create a Scope Statement which serves as the development team’s “contract” with functional stakeholders
• Burden of proof falls on advocates for change to show benefits exceed costs
• All changes subject to “The Reality Triangle”

Timeline Highlights
• The timeline displays technical dates• Functional “SME” groups begin the spec-writing process
well before coding begins• For instance:
– IACUC group is already working, even though the release is for 2010
– Awards SME started work the same time as proposal/budget development
• Release 4 modules are all joint Kuali & Coeus effort on brand-new functionality
• The timeline displays dates from the Kuali Coeus Roadmap

KC UI Mock Screens
Coeus KC – Interface and Presentation Conversion
• Coeus has two different interfaces:• – Coeus Lite utilizing web technology• – Coeus Premium utilizing client/server Java Swing technology• Kuali Coeus (KC) utilizes only a web interface, but wants to
preserve all of the functionality that Coeus provides in the two different interfaces. In addition KC has a number of other conditions to satisfy:
• -- platform/browser neutral-- limited use of icons-- general avoidance of menus-- provide the user with the ability to know where they are in the application-- limit the required scrolling-- be complaint the Level 1 WCAG recommendations
• How do KC 1.1 screens appear?
