7.2 Work Packages
From Iei
This will be a critical part of your proposal, describing your planned activities. You will need to break them into work packages. Work packages represent major, natural packages of your proposed action. The size should be about 3-5 pages per Work Package.
There are specific previsions for the three mandatory wps:
- Work Package N° 1 Management: consortium management, including consortium meetings, monitoring and evaluation of progress/results and reporting;
- Work Package N° n-1 Communication activities: covers the specific communication activities in your proposal;
- Work Package N° n EACI dissemination activities: covers specific requests from the EACI and pre-defined standard activities for all IEE actions
! Important notes:
- The number of work packages used must match the complexity of the work and the overall value of the proposed action. It is standard to have between 5 and 10 work packages. Do not exceed 10 work packages.
- Within each work package, illustrate the main tasks needed to reach the objectives of the proposal,describe the tasks with sufficient detail.
- When designing the work packages, keep in mind your target groups, key actors and the European added value – how is this translated into tasks and outputs in your work programme?
- The description of the work packages should be sufficiently detailed to justify the proposed effort and allow progress monitoring. Mind the consistency with the level of effort proposed in your budget (person hours).
- Outputs should be consistent with the tasks – and vice versa!
- Work packages must show how the tasks are distributed amongst the partners. Note that it is recommended to allocate responsibility for leading the work packages to different partners of your consortium, relevant to their competence.
- "Major subcontracts" are services that you intend to acquire in the course of the action and which are critical in terms of (technical) input and/or in terms of budgetary volume. Those should be shortly described.
