For research organisations in India

Every study,
on track.
No surprises.

Status that comes from the work itself. Risks with owners and review dates. A checkpoint between every stage. Proposal to donor report, one place.

Fictional studies and people in every screen.

What research leads told us

How MAIRA works

Visibility

Nobody wrote a status update.
You still know.

The status comes from the work: checklists ticked, submissions received, approvals signed. Data collection 21 days late shows as 21 days late, with an owner's name next to it.

Data collection · 21 days overdue · owner named

Risk

Every risk has an owner
and a review date.

An ethics renewal due 12 November sits in the register next to a district running behind on sample. Both reach the leadership view before they reach the donor.

11 open risks · 3 high · all owned

Approvals

A checkpoint
between every stage.

A stage stays locked until every required item is done. The approval carries a name and a time, and that record stays. The same discipline a donor audit asks for, built into the flow.

Locked until every required item is done

That was the control layer

Here's the rest.

  1. Proposal
  2. Protocol
  3. Questionnaires
  4. Ethics
  5. Training
  6. Data collection
  7. Analysis
  8. Reporting

Questionnaires on the XLSForm standard, deployed to SurveyCTO, KoboToolbox or ODK. Ethics correspondence in one thread. Field monitoring by district. Weighted crosstabs. Reports where the numbers update themselves. Every file attached to the stage it belongs to.

Trust

What MAIRA won't do.

Specialised assistants draft. People decide. Everything is editable before it is saved, and the audit trail is everywhere.
