Abstract
The National Science Foundation (NSF) is creating a new system of records: NSF-77 Data Analytics Application Suite. This system is a vital step in NSF's commitment to maintaining U.S. leadership across all fields of science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM), and STEM education, and doing so with efficiency, openness, and transparency. The new system of records will aggregate, link, and analyze information reported by individuals and organizations participating in NSF-supported activities along with published information related to the research enterprise. More comprehensive information on NSF-funded research outcomes and the STEM workforce will advance NSF's understanding of its return on investments and the evolution of the scientific landscape. This system will also enable NSF to uphold the scientific community's core values of openness, transparency, honesty, equity, fair competition, and objectivity.
