Abstract

The study proposes an evolution of the grant evaluation system from a dual focus on «form and content» to a «content-centric» model to enhance the efficacy and quality of scientific research. This novel approach, intended for incorporation into Kazakhstan’s grant framework, involves a two-tiered examination process – an initial assessment by the National Center for State Scientific and Technical Expertise (NCSTE) followed by a secondary review by the National Scientific Councils (NSC). The rationale behind this shift away from an overemphasis on quantitative and qualitative project details towards a qualitative, semantic, conceptual, and methodological representation is rooted in the constraints of NCSTE/NSC resources and other pertinent factors. We have adopted and tailored the Technology Readiness Level (TRL), Manufacturing Readiness Level (MRL), and Capability Readiness Level (CRL) scaling methodologies for R&D and RNTD activities by devising a novel Scientific Readiness Levels (SRL) methodology. This has resulted in the compilation of SRL scales for fundamental (FRL), applied (ARL), and innovative projects (IRL), bringing economic efficiency to the grant funding evaluation process.

赠款资金评价的经济效率:简化哈萨克斯坦的知识密集型应用
该研究建议将资助评估系统从“形式和内容”的双重关注转变为“以内容为中心”的模式,以提高科学研究的效率和质量。这种旨在纳入哈萨克斯坦资助框架的新方法涉及一个两级审查过程——由国家国家科学和技术专门知识中心(NCSTE)进行初步评估,然后由国家科学委员会(NSC)进行二次审查。从过分强调定量和定性的项目细节转向定性的、语义的、概念的和方法论的表示,这种转变背后的基本原理源于NCSTE/NSC资源和其他相关因素的限制。我们通过设计一种新颖的科学准备水平(SRL)方法,为研发和RNTD活动采用并定制了技术准备水平(TRL)、制造准备水平(MRL)和能力准备水平(CRL)缩放方法。这导致了基础(FRL)、应用(ARL)和创新项目(IRL)的SRL量表的编制,为拨款资金评估过程带来了经济效率。
