Editorial offices

face many challenges, including managing an increase in submission volume

beyond their capacity, locating qualified researchers for peer review, maximizing

reach and impact factor of published works on a global scale, making data more

accessible, implementing various business models (such as Open Access (OA)),

ensuring accuracy and reproducibility or metadata and research, and more. These

can introduce a series of risks for publishers and other key stakeholders,

including decreased quality, increased time to publication, and increased

costs. To solve these pain points, Aries Systems has built an ecosystem of best-in-class tools designed to enhance user workflow -

connected all in one place.

 

 

 

Comprised of both

Aries and third-party technology that plug into our workflow management

solutions Editorial Manager® (EM) and ProduXion Manager® (PM), the Aries ecosystem serves as a network of

features, purposefully categorized under seven

branches to solve

for various workflow needs:

• Centralized repositories to easily store, site, and share/distribute pre- and post-publication data and content
• Fee processing services to calculate, collect, and manage standard or ad hoc publication charges, such as open access APCs
• Manuscript evaluation tools to help improve the quality of scholarly content and support initial triage
• Reporting and tracking tools for efficient data, content, and task management to allow seamless notices and strategic editorial decisions
• Reviewer candidate identification, screening, and recognition services to boost Reviewer invitation and engagement
• XML workflow features to streamline the submission, editing, and publication of structured content
• Industry standard identifiers for people, institutions, funders, and more for accurate metadata

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As a trusted

partner, Aries recognizes that collaboration is critical to the advancement of

scholarly research and the successful dissemination of knowledge. We form

strategic partnerships with industry organizations to support relevant

societies and initiatives, strengthen ties to our user community, and enrich

our offerings. The Aries Ecosystem, one of the two main channels within the Aries Partner Program, is continually expanding and evolving

through in-house innovations and strategic collaborations to meet the needs of

our user community and the ever-evolving scholarly publishing landscape.

 

Users can easily explore branches of the ecosystem to access helpful resources and learn more

about how each feature can streamline their workflow and improve research

output. Leveraging these integrated solutions help push the boundaries of what

technology can enable to empower content creators to publish faster and

smarter.
