Everything a university project office needs to plan, fund and deliver projects

See every project and grant in one portfolio view

See research grants, EU projects, campus infrastructure and administrative initiatives in a single portfolio instead of spreadsheets scattered across faculties. Filter by department, funding source or status, so the project office and rectorate always know which projects are on track and which need attention.

Fund the strongest proposals first

Score and rank project and grant ideas against your own criteria: strategic fit, funding potential, research impact and required resources. When budgets are limited, scoring shows which initiatives deserve funding first and gives committees an objective, comparable basis for every go decision.

Scoring in project portfolio with prioritization and evaluation criteria

Launch recurring grants from a ready template

Turn each funding scheme into a reusable template with its own phases, budget lines, typical risks and reporting milestones, so a new NCN, NCBR or EU project starts in minutes instead of days. Every project of the same type stays comparable, which keeps portfolio reporting and audits consistent across faculties.

Introduce standards in the company by creating project templates

Plan multi-year work and reporting deadlines

Build multi-year schedules for research and infrastructure projects with phases, milestones and task dependencies. When a funder reporting date or a procurement step moves, you see the knock-on effect across the whole timeline and can rebook people and shift deadlines before they clash.

Keep grant budgets under control

Plan and track project budgets against grant and co-financing rules, with budget lines linked to schedule tasks so committed and actual spend stay visible. When a cost category runs ahead of plan, the project office catches it early, before it turns into an ineligible expense at reporting time.

Deliver research and grant-funded projects

Run every research grant and EU-funded project through one repeatable process, from proposal and budget to reporting and closeout, so nothing is lost between faculties and the grants office.

the real bottleneck

In higher education, coordination is the hard part, not the research

A university runs dozens of projects at once: grants with strict reporting rules, EU programs, campus construction and administrative change. The work rarely fails on the science. It slips when deadlines, budgets and approvals live in separate spreadsheets and no one sees the whole picture until a funder asks.

reporting

Turn project data into funder-ready reports

Every schedule, budget and approval in FlexiProject feeds live reports, so the project office can produce portfolio dashboards for the rectorate and progress summaries for funders without stitching data together by hand. When the ministry or an EU body asks for status, the numbers are already there and consistent.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best higher education project management software?

FlexiProject is a project portfolio management (PPM) system built for universities and research institutions that run many projects at once. It combines portfolio visibility, project scoring, stage-gate approvals, grant budgeting and scheduling in one place, so research grants, EU programs and administrative initiatives are planned, funded and reported from one system instead of scattered spreadsheets. It suits project offices, faculties and management that need governance and audit-ready records.

Can FlexiProject manage EU-funded and grant projects?

Yes. You can plan each grant as a project with its own budget lines, milestones and reporting deadlines, and link budget items to schedule tasks so committed and actual spend stay visible. Approval paths record every budget change and phase decision, which gives you an audit trail for funders and EU bodies. Portfolio views then roll all grants up, so the grants office sees every deadline and budget in one place.

How does FlexiProject help prioritize projects when budgets are limited?

Project scoring lets committees rate every proposal against shared criteria such as strategic fit, funding potential, research impact and resource demand. Ideas are ranked on a single, comparable scale, so limited funding goes to the strongest cases and every go or no-go decision has an objective basis. Combined with stage-gate approvals, this turns funding decisions into a transparent, repeatable process.

Does FlexiProject support governance and approvals across faculties?

Yes. You can define separate approval paths for different decisions and departments, so a small schedule change follows a short path while a major budget or phase decision goes to a steering committee, dean or bursar. Each decision is recorded with who approved what and when. Work areas let every faculty keep its own templates and paths while the rectorate keeps one consistent standard for reporting.

Is FlexiProject available in the cloud and in other languages?

FlexiProject runs fully in the cloud, so there is nothing to install and faculties, the grants office and management all work from the same up-to-date data. The interface is available in 28 languages with user documentation in 11, which helps international research teams and cross-border programs work to one standard. A companion mobile app lets team members view assigned tasks, change status and add comments and attachments, so progress can be updated on the move.
