To do so it has set up an information system to:
> Record the competences and fields of action of its members through information provided at the time of joining or membership renewal
> Allow people to sign up to events organised or jointly organised by Valorial
> Track collaborative projects supported by Valorial, from emergence through to implementation and development, by measuring their short and medium term gains (between 5 and 10 years post-project)
> Lead specific actions at the request of public funding bodies (reporting)
> Put forward project management tools for partners.
