**Purpose of this page**: To document assigned unique identifiers for each of IOI's research objectives and associated deliverables. :round_pushpin:

Each identifier follows the syntax *RYY##*, where YY is the last two digits of the [fiscal year](https://hackmd.io/@investinopen/standards#Fiscal-year) (FY) in which the research commenced, and ## are sequential integers (01 through 99).

Our fiscal year runs from 1 July through 30 June.
