Abstract:
Open fund projects play an important role in strengthening discipline construction and enhancing research capabilities. The National Clinical Research Center for Geriatrics of West China Hospital, Sichuan University (hereinafter referred to as the Center) initiated the establishment of open fund projects in 2018. However, due to their strong disciplinary and autonomous nature, as well as the presence of uncertainty, these projects posed new challenges to project management. Therefore, based on the theory of project integration management, the Center has established an integrated management system for open fund projects. This system was achieved by identifying the construction objectives of open fund projects, defining their scope of application, and integrating the four essential elements of project management: execution, processes, control, and support. It ensured standardized execution through organizational and institutional measures, optimized management processes, implemented control through the development of milestone lists, risk registration lists, superior funding lists, and non-performing lists, and integrated technology and platforms as support. The system was implemented since 2020, realizing comprehensive and holistic management of open fund projects across all stages and elements, thereby effectively enhancing management efficiency and quality. As of December 2023, 112 open fund projects have been approved, with a total funding of 31.943 million yuan. These projects have yielded a series of achievements in cohort study and platform construction, academic output, and have demonstrated remarkable effectiveness in projects and talents cultivation. The construction and application of this system can provide reference for medical institutions in managing open fund projects.
