Course Information:

Research Managers, You are probably spending up to 20% of your hard-earned budget on management – money that would be much better spent on Research and Development, Demonstration and Exploitation but, you, just like hundreds of other co-ordinators, are facing a huge administrative burden and you have no time to switch to a novel management system – or so you think!

By working together, Designtech and Pera, two of Europe’s top management service providers, can offer you this service. We can do this because Pera are veterans of managing many previous FP projects, with dedicated expert staff, and Designtech provide state of the art web-based project management systems and tools specifically for this purpose.

If this sounds interesting, you need to attend this workshop.

To convince you, in just ONE DAY we will PROVE to you IN REAL TIME how we can lower the cost of administration with up to two thirds by:

1/ generating cost statements quickly and without effort.
2/ automatically generating eligible cost and financial data enabling the management of audit certificates.
3/ enabling data gathering from partners
4/ easening the burden of contract amendments including:
• partner changes
• changes in technical direction
• budget changes
5/ ensuring that cash flow on the project is secured and well managed
6/ rapidly securing bank guarantees and blocked bank accounts to protect your consortium
7/ producing all the EC reports on time and to the required specification without taking up valuable research resources.
8/ automatic collation of individual research documents into standard reports
9/ facilitating all contract negotiation issues
10/ enabling rapid and effective communication between you and all partners
11/ facilitating control and protection of intellectual property rights
allowing you to spend your hard-earned money on research and development, demonstration and exploitation instead.http://events.designtech.se
