About the event
Lump sum proposals and projects in Horizon Europe (without workshop)
Lump sum funding is increasingly used in Horizon Europe to make the programme simpler by removing the need to report actual costs and reduce the financial error rate. It is meant to simplify the funding mechanism while all the main features of the research funding stay the same.
However, the details are always important; simplification comes at a price, and these are the specific extra tasks and rules that everyone applying for lump sum funding should be aware of – both when writing a proposal and implementing a project.
This 1 day course will dig into the details of writing proposals and managing projects with a lump sum budget. Consisting of practical presentations and workshops, it will cover the following topics:
• The main features of lump sum funding
• How to define the lump sum in your proposal – tips to define units and estimate sufficient budget and resources for your lump sum budget
• Distribution of tasks and planning of work packages in your proposal and how it is linked to the payment system of lump sum projects
• Evaluation of the lump sum proposals – how your estimated costs and planned resources will be assessed and scored
• Grant Agreement preparation in lump sum projects – specific articles in your Grant Agreement and tips to specify lump sum features in your Consortium Agreement
• Changes in your lump sum project implementation – how to amend your lump sum grant?
• How to report your lump sum project, with a detailed introduction to periodic reporting
• How to deal with partially completed work packages and how to report deviations in your lump sum projects
• Keeping records – what you need and don’t need to keep for reviews, checks and audits
• Payment schedule and partial payment in lump sum grants
The course is delivered by Europa Media.
Our Horizon Europe seminars are distributed into 5 topics (A-E) on three knowledge levels (1-3)
