L'activitat científica del grup se centra en la investigació, la transferència tecnològica i la formació en temes lligats a la modelització i el processament de la informació, com ara la modelització conceptual, la qualitat de les dades, la intel·ligència del negoci, la mineria de dades o l'enginyeria de serveis. En el marc d'aquesta activitat, els membres del grup han aconseguit en el període 2009-2013 12 projectes de R+D competitius i 26 contractes o convenis amb empreses i administracions, amb un ingrés total que supera els 4,1 milions d'euros. També han publicat més de 40 articles en revistes indexades al Journal Citation Reports (JCR) i més de 100 articles a congressos de reconegut prestigi internacional. A nivell formatiu, coordinen tres Erasmus Mundus (un de doctorat) i han dirigit 14 tesis doctorals en els últims cinc anys. A més, compten amb nombroses col·laboracions internacionals i duen regularment a terme accions de divulgació científica dels resultats de la recerca.
