Other novelties from H2020
Audit Certificates:
Simplification, only for final payments/per beneficiary and only when funding related
to direct costs ≥ €325 000 €
Guarantee Fund:
5% retained from JU grant value, deducted from the prefinancing payment.
New in Clean Sky to better protect the action from financial risks associated to
the implementation of the action
Financial Viability*:
Simplification, only coordinators of actions (projects) ≥ 500k€ in funding
Other beneficiaries in case of grounds on their financial capacity subject to
JU discretion. Documents to be sent to REA
* Except public bodies and other exceptions
CS vs CS2 main differences in CfP process
• Topic value not anymore an eligibility criterion, only “indicative,” however value and efficiency of costs resources allocated in the proposal will be duly evaluated
• Only external independent evaluators
• ethical aspects of the proposal, complete the self assessment and “tag” any aspect which may require attention
• Combination of H2020 – EU Structural Funds encouraged but avoidance of double funding of same cost item and co-financing to be met
CS vs CS2 main differences in CfP
• The role of the ITD/IADP Topic Manager indicated in the Work Plan, rules for submissions and model Grant Agreement for Partners
• No official “negotiation” phase in H2020, from evaluation to “grant preparation”, proposals evaluated as they are and not on their potential
• However “technical sessions” envisaged with Topic Manager and JU based on the CSJU “topic” logic to fit into the ITD/IADP as set in the WP
• Time to grant :
- 5m max for evaluation process +
- 3m max for grant preparation
Target of max 8 months for grant signature, efforts from both
coordinator/beneficiaries and JU side will be crucial to meet this target
