OREL RGS is R&D management software that brings project, budget, idea, patent and incentive processes together on one platform for R&D and design teams. It makes the entire R&D lifecycle traceable, from collecting ideas to managing the project portfolio, and from staff timesheets to incentive programme reporting. This lets you direct resources to your most valuable projects and keep your intellectual property on record.
For R&D and design centres, innovation teams and companies running publicly funded projects.
- You capture ideas and move them into evaluation before they are lost.
- You track project budgets and spending in real time.
- You produce incentive reports from system records instead of scattered spreadsheets.
- You never miss deadlines in patent and IP processes.
Every idea faces the gate; the valuable ones reach a patent
Ideas collect in a pool and are scored at the evaluation, feasibility and development gates. Those above the threshold become projects with tracked progress; stopped ones are recorded with their reason. The ones that make it join the portfolio as patent filings or products.
- 1
Scored gate decisions
Each gate has defined criteria, a threshold score and decision makers; every go or kill decision is recorded with its reason.
- 2
Portfolio by stage
How many ideas and projects sit at each stage is visible on one screen, with budget and resource allocation.
- 3
A trail from idea to patent
Patent filings are tracked together with the idea they came from, their project and the invention disclosure.
