The project completed 149 assessments and 33 proof of concept services to 157 customers, 33 of then SMEs. Some of the requested several assessments of different codes or of the same code after they implemented some of the suggestions in a first assessment. POP2 has carried out specific assessment campaigns with other domain specific CoEs. In particular: ChEESE (2 rounds), EoCoE, E-CAM, CoEC, NOMAD. We additionally performed studies for PerMedCoE, ESiWACE and CompBioMed for a total of 49 studies performed for other CoEs.
The results of the project are gathered in our web site www.pop-coe.eu including a blog, links to our youtube channel posts, training material including explanatory videos and actual data for hand on sessions, links to the recordings of the 25 Webinars we have organized, 3 monthly newsletter, documentation describing the methodology and co-design resources pages providing access to summarised insights as well as the individual reports for further analysis. Overall, a very exhaustive set of dissemination materials and events where produced, organized or attended and the material in our web page keeps getting very good reference rates.
The analyses do show how different codes have potentially very different inefficiency causes. In many cases with intricate coupling effects between several of them. Very often the identified issues were not known to the customer or at least she/he was not aware of the quantitative importance of the issue. This is actually identified by the internal customer follow up (by our “customer advocate” partner) after the services were completed and stresses the usefulness and importance of the external view provided by the project analysts.
