  12. 1st Call - Ranked Priority List

  13. 1st Call - Results of Level 2

  14. Priority List Proposed for Funding Level 1 and CSA

  15. Success Rate of the 1st Callby Instrument • Level 1: 26 out of 167 proposals • Level 2: 4 out of 5 proposals • CSA: 6 out of 20 proposals DG Research-H.3 Aeronautics –DK-10-2007 - 15

  16. 1st Call FP7 – 2007 AATSummary of Proposal Failure 1. Scientific and/or technological excellence - Fail to position the work in relation to present state-of-the-art - Level of innovation is too low - Not convincing that technical challenges can be met - Lack of focus in the technical objectives, too many items without synergy 2. Quality and efficiency of implementation and management - Management structure is very weak. - Very little real cooperation between key partners. - Risk assessment and management is not convincingly addressed - Partners have not sufficient critical mass to address all diverse areas - Funding requested is considered too large for the expected results 3. Potential impact through development, dissemination and use of results - Dissemination is weak - Impact/funding ratio appears low.

  17. Changed Terminology of FP7 Sources: FR/IR & FP7/RfP • “Contract” becomes “Grant Agreement” • “Contractor” becomes “Beneficiary” • “Instruments” become “Funding Schemes” • “Audit certificate” becomes “Certificate on Financial Statement”

  18. Changes of FP7 against FP6 • Up to 75 % EU funding for SME and research institutes • No financial collective responsibility • “Technical responsibility” to carry out the project jointly and severally • No limits for administrative management costs • Guarantee Fund
