The Office of Research Services (ORS) would like to make all UPEI researchers aware that UPEI will be transitioning to a new electronic Research Administration Software (eRAS) in mid-2027.  

Our current platform (ROMEO) is at the end of its life and will no longer be receiving software updates. The new eRAS, Endpoint IQ, will have added functionality and be more user-friendly. 

ORS has created an information hub on our SharePoint site. This hub contains more information about how the new eRAS was selected, progress updates, and frequently asked questions (FAQs). While important updates will be circulated through various university communications channels, all updates will be available on the hub. 

ORS would like to assure researchers that the existing software, ROMEO, will be maintained and supported until the transition to Endpoint IQ is complete.  

Questions related to this transition can be directed to Maria Steele, Manager of Research Administration, Partnerships, and Innovation (mlsteele@upei.ca).
