M1-M6
In terms of project management (WP1) it was established all the management procedures, the quality plan and all the organizational meetings to hold during the project life duration. It was also created all dissemination and social media channels. The architecture design and assessment of the POLYCARE requirements. (WP2) was established during this period too, including a review of the state of the art on those aspects and components that are being developed in POLYCARE. There are 3 main technical areas (WPs 3, 4 and 5) that are in charge of developing the ICT POLYCARE components. It was started the definition of the methodologies as part of the WP6 activity.
M6-M12
The work focused on trying to match the points of view of the clinical and technical parts in order to set the basis for defining the functionalities of these applications. In WP4 the work focused on developing the DSS, the CE and the technical architecture. Also the work on the SSP (WP5) experienced several advances and the several tasks were oriented to integrate the system architecture requirements. It also started the work on the pilots. The pilot sites started the specific definition of the three PoCs and also to identify the preliminary trial and integration planning as part of WP8 activity. Finally, some actions were taken in terms of exploitation and innovation management. The most relevant results obtained during this period included: (1)Successful submission of the expected deliverables, (2)The technical design of the application for patients was finalized, (3) The technical design of the DSS and CE was finalized, (4)The integration of the system requirements within the SSP platform was achieved, (5)The definition and planning of the PoC trials was finalized.
M12 - M18
Based on the technical designs agreed during previous semester, all pending development tasks of the different technology components were started. WP7 activities to plan and execute the integration plan have been driven and in WP8 the infrastructure set up of each pilot, trainings and preparation to start the pilots have also been carried out. On the clinical side WP6 task were finalized. WP9 potential business models and exploitation were proposed and will be refined during the second phase of the project. Most relevant results included: (1) development of the technical components – improvements and extensions will be required- , (2) set up preparation of the pilots and (3) development of the methodologies at each of the pilot sites.
M19 – M24
Echosanté partner dropped its participation in POLYCARE due to a bankruptcy process. From the management it was taken all the steps for the exit of this partner and the search and inclusion of a new partner to substitute Echosanté. SANTELYS was our candidate. The POLYCARE platform experienced delay in the finalization of most relevant features and integrations resulting in a delay while starting the pilots. WP3, WP4, WP5 and WP7 increased the man power devoted to finalized the technology, meanwhile clinical partners finalized their set ups and contributed to the testing and validation of the technology.
M25-M30
SANTELYS was confirmed as newcomer partner in POLYCARE and all partners contributed to get them on-board. Clinical partners will all aspects related to the integrated care methodology and technical partners run a compilation of new requirements for this new pilot. In addition technical work continued to bring technology to a more stable status. Also new functionalities were requested to start the pilots. The most important outcome of this period was a stable version of the POLYCARE platform ready to start the pilots.
M31-M36
The final semester has been mainly devoted to run the pilots at the 3 sites and provide with the final version of the technical components. In addition, it has been carried out the local and global evaluations and derived the results and key findings from the project which are the major results of this period and the project. All the steps to close the project have been also taken during this last period
