In today's era of digitalization, managing the lifecycle of research projects demands efficient navigation through a myriad of data sources and services. This presentation delves into the pivotal role of HELIPORT, a web browser-based guidance system, in streamlining research project lifecycle management. HELIPORT serves as a comprehensive platform, seamlessly connecting disparate services and systems to facilitate the smooth flow of digital data throughout the entire research process. By harnessing HELIPORT's capabilities, researchers can effectively track, organise, and share data and workflows with colleagues, thereby enhancing collaboration. The embedding of computational workflows to automate processes and provide comprehensible and reproducable workloads on HPC clusters is an essential part of this process. In the talk, we explore how HELIPORT is expanding the digital horizon and empowering researchers to push new boundaries in scientific exploration.
