Abstract
To get the license, universities must meet a set of standards to guarantee the education of their students. This involves installation and maintenance of an institutional repository to publish their grey literature. This research aims to create an alternative altmetric tool to measure the impact of such literature. To get it done, we worked the institutional repository customization and optimization, we created procedures to retrieve records, transform and load altmetric data in a new database and we built a dashboard-type tool using the altmetric data of the institutional repository grey literature. Now, there is an alternative to measure the altmetric indices from different dimensions and analysis perspectives and it makes possible to take the necessary actions to apply strategies that aim to increase the repository visibility. The tool implementation in the study case allowed the monitoring and control of the institutional repository altmetric indices.
