​

Enhanced discoverability for your authors. Writing publication data to your authors' ORCID records increases discoverability and helps them claim credit for their work.

​

A more consistent experience. Having your users sign in with ORCID reduces the frustration and burden of managing multiple credentials. Linking authors between different systems saves time during submission, review, and reporting.

​

Interconnected infrastructure. The ORCID registry is an open, interconnected hub of profile data. By integrating with ORCID, you can contribute publication data and extend the reach of your systems. Consuming interoperable data from ORCID helps reduce your dependence on costly proprietary systems.

​

Trustworthy award attribution. Ensure the right applicant is awarded, and enable better transparency throughout the funding process. Preserve the integrity of downstream analysis.

​

Enhanced ease of reviewer selection. More complete applicant data makes reviewer selection process easier and helps to discover possible conflicts of interest. When recruiting new reviewers, program managers can assign reviews based on previous contributions and activities, even across other funders.

​

Increased research ROI. Writing rich data to ORCID records can potentially allow better tracking of research outcomes supported by your funding, ultimately leading to better resource allocation decisions.

​

Accurate attribution and enhanced discoverability. Standardized identifiers and open data can help increase discoverability, recognition, and accuracy of attribution of the research you fund or facilitate, even beyond the period of performance.

​

Reduced administrative burden for both your staff and researchers. Re-use of standardized data improves quality and accuracy and can save time, money and effort. Having users sign in with ORCID reduces their frustration and burden of managing multiple credentials and saves time during submission, review, and reporting.

​

Interconnected infrastructure. Help accelerate knowledge discovery and increase the integrity, transparency and reproducibility of research by encouraging FAIR Data Principles and Open Science practices through persistent identifiers and standardized, openly-accessible data.

​

Trustworthy recognition of your researchers and research. Have confidence that the contributions from researchers in your country or region have been correctly identified, that you can easily understand the range of research activities, and can identify conflicts of interest.

​

Transparent, trustworthy decision-making. Use insights gained from standardized, open data to hone your research vision, refine policies and clarify expectations for your country's research community.

​

Increased return on investment. Increase your return on investment by better understanding the full impact of your research efforts across your scholarly ecosystem – regardless of the variability of the research systems in use.

​

Accurate attribution. Ensure that the affiliations, research outputs, contributions, and activities of your county's or region's researchers are correctly attributed.

​

Reduced administrative burden. Reduce time and effort for everyone – especially in critical assessment exercises – by reusing existing, validated data about research outputs.

​

Interconnected infrastructure. Help accelerate knowledge discovery, international collaboration, and increase the integrity, transparency and reproducibility of research by encouraging FAIR Data Principles and Open Science practices through persistent identifiers and standardized, openly-accessible data.

​

Name disambiguation. Using our authoritative, high quality profile data can increase the precision of your researcher profiles, regardless of the popularity, variability, or language of the names.

​

A broader view of outputs. Create a broader view of a researcher, institution or funder's contributions by including activities beyond publications such as affiliations, datasets, peer reviews, grants, and patents.

​
