Abstract: This study explores the harmonization process of research grant compliance and Technology Readiness level (TRL) monitoring across funding bodies particularly among non-profit Technology Transfer Offices (TTOs). Using a bibliometric analysis, the study carried out a quantitative analysis on published documents from Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus database, dated from 2016 to 2025. Then, this research identifies common compliance challenges, key regulatory frameworks, and emerging best practices for ensuring transparent and efficient grant management. Findings highlight variations in reporting standards, administrative burdens, and commercialization requirements, underscoring the need for a globally aligned compliance framework. The study proposes strategic recommendations, including policy integration, digital compliance tools, and standardized TRL assessment metrics to enhance international research collaborations and funding efficiency.
