Transferring materials is necessary for research in universities. However, there are currently some problems regarding material transfer: firstly, the delayed completion of the Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) due to the complexities of MTA terms and the procedure of MTA completion, and secondly, the large risk of infringing on others' rights brought about by modifications, inventions resulting from the use of materials, etc.To solve these problems, we have begun managing all of the materials and the material transfer processes via a web system enabling an online application of the material transfer (MMC system). All researchers at the institution use the MMC system whenever they receive or send materials. As a result of the MMC system, the centralization of MTAs has been successfully implemented. The MMC system could also support the transfer of materials in compliance with laws related to the material transfers.
