In this paper we aim to analyse the adoption of Current Research Information Systems (CRIS) for Research Data Management (RDM). We show how CRISs hold a key role in facilitating the management and reporting of an institution's research activities and outputs – not only do they offer extensive functionality for researchers and research administrators to effectively manage all aspects of their research information, but are also integrating more and more with specialized RDM tools, Institutional Repositories (IR), and other external systems. This paper provides an overview of how CRISs have evolved and integrated to become a crucial part of the RDM chain, including the interoperability, registration, linking, and archiving of data.
