Proposal template Part B: technical description

(for full proposals: single stage submission procedure and 2nd stage of a two-stage submission procedure)

This template is to be used in a single-stage submission procedure or at the 2nd stage of a two-stage submission

procedure.

The structure of this template must be followed when preparing your proposal. It has been designed to ensure that

the important aspects of your planned work are presented in a way that will enable the experts to make an effective

assessment against the evaluation criteria. Sections 1, 2 and 3 each correspond to an evaluation criterion.

Please be aware that proposals will be evaluated as they were submitted, rather than on their potential if certain

changes were to be made. This means that only proposals that successfully address all the required aspects will

have a chance of being funded. There will be no possibility for significant changes to content, budget and

consortium composition during grant preparation.

Page limit: The title, list of participants and sections 1, 2 and 3, together, should not be longer than 45 pages.

All tables, figures, references and any other element pertaining to these sections must be included as an integral

part of these sections and are thus counted against this page limit. The number of pages included in each section of

this template is only indicative.

The page limit will be applied automatically. At the end of this document you can see the structure of the

actual proposal that you need to submit, please remove all instruction pages that are watermarked.

If you attempt to upload a proposal longer than the specified limit before the deadline, you will receive an

automatic warning and will be advised to shorten and re-upload the proposal. After the deadline, excess pages (in

over-long proposals/applications) will be automatically made invisible, and will not be taken into consideration by

the experts. The proposal is a self-contained document. Experts will be instructed to ignore hyperlinks to

information that is specifically designed to expand the proposal, thus circumventing the page limit.

Please, do not consider the page limit as a target! It is in your interest to keep your text as concise as possible, since

experts rarely view unnecessarily long proposals in a positive light.

The following formatting conditions apply.

The reference font for the body text of proposals is Times New Roman (Windows platforms), Times/Times New

Roman (Apple platforms) or Nimbus Roman No. 9 L (Linux distributions).

The use of a different font for the body text is not advised and is subject to the cumulative conditions that the font

is legible and that its use does not significantly shorten the representation of the proposal in number of pages

compared to using the reference font (for example with a view to bypass the page limit).

The minimum font size allowed is 11 points. Standard character spacing and a minimum of single line spacing is to

be used. This applies to the body text, including text in tables.

Text elements other than the body text, such as headers, foot/end notes, captions, formula's, may deviate, but must

be legible.

The page size is A4, and all margins (top, bottom, left, right) should be at least 15 mm (not including any footers or

headers).

This document is tagged. Be careful not to delete the tags; they are needed for processing.

DEFINITIONS

Critical risk

A critical risk is a plausible event or issue that could have a high adverse impact on the ability of

the project to achieve its objectives.

Level of likelihood to occur (Low/medium/high): The likelihood is the estimated probability that

the risk will materialise even after taking account of the mitigating measures put in place.

Level of severity (Low/medium/high): The relative seriousness of the risk and the significance of its

effect.

Deliverable

A report that is sent to the Commission or Agency providing information to ensure effective

monitoring of the project. There are different types of deliverables (e.g. a report

on specific

activities or results, data management plans, ethics or security requirements).

Impacts

Wider long term effects on society (including the environment), the economy and science, enabled

by the outcomes of R&I investments (long term). It refers to the specific contribution of the project

to the work programme expected impacts described in the destination. Impacts generally occur

some time after the end of the project.

Example: The deployment of the advanced forecasting system enables each airport to increase

maximum passenger capacity by 15% and passenger average throughput by 10%, leading to a 28%

reduction in infrastructure expansion costs.

Milestone

Control points in the project that help to chart progress. Milestones may correspond to the

achievement of a key result, allowing the next phase of the work to begin. They may also be

needed at intermediary points so that, if problems have arisen, corrective measures can be taken.

A milestone may be a critical decision point in the project where, for example, the consortium

must decide which of several technologies to adopt for further development. The achievement of

a milestone should be verifiable.

Objectives

The goals of the work performed within the project, in terms of its research and innovation

content. This will be translated into the project’s results. These may range from tackling specific

research questions, demonstrating the feasibility of an innovation, sharing knowledge among

stakeholders on specific issues. The nature of the objectives will depend on the type of action, and

the scope of the topic.

Outcomes

The expected effects, over the medium term, of projects supported under a given topic. The

results of a

project should contribute to these outcomes, fostered in particular by the

dissemination and exploitation measures. This may include the

uptake, diffusion, deployment,

and/or use of the project’s results by direct target groups. Outcomes generally occur during or

shortly after the end of the project.

Example: 9 European airports adopt the advanced forecasting system demonstrated during the

project.

Pathway to

impact

Logical steps towards the achievement of the expected impacts of the project over time, in

particular beyond the duration of a project. A pathway begins with the projects’ results, to their

dissemination, exploitation and communication,

contributing to the expected outcomes in the

work programme topic, and ultimately to the wider scientific, economic and societal impacts of

the work programme destination.

Research

output

Results generated by the action to which access can be given in the form of scientific publications,

data or other engineered outcomes and processes such as software, algorithms, protocols and

Example, not to complete

Call: [insert call identifier] — [insert call name] EU Grants: Application form (HE RIA and IA): V3.1 – 08.09.2022

Part B - Page 5 of 23

electronic notebooks.

Results

What is generated during the project implementation. This may include, for example, know-how,

innovative solutions, algorithms, proof of feasibility,

new business models, policy

recommendations, guidelines, prototypes, demonstrators, databases and datasets, trained

researchers, new infrastructures, networks, etc. Most project results (inventions, scientific works,

etc.) are ‘Intellectual Property’, which may, if appropriate, be protected by formal ‘Intellectual

Property Rights’.

Example: Successful large-scale demonstrator: trial with 3 ai

rports of an advanced forecasting

system for proactive airport passenger flow management.

ambitious. Indicate any exceptional ground-breaking R&I, novel concepts and approaches, new products,

services or business and organisational models. Where relevant, illustrate the advance by referring to

products and services already available on the market. Refer to any patent or publication search carried

out.

• Describe where the proposed work is positioned in terms of R&I maturity (i.e. where it is situated in the

spectrum from ‘idea to application’, or from ‘lab to market’). Where applicable, provide an indication of

the Technology Readiness Level, if possible distinguishing the start and by the end of the project.

Please bear in mind that advances beyond the state of the art must be interpreted in the light of

the positioning of the project. Expectations will not be the same for RIAs at lower TRL, compared

with Innovation Actions at high TRLs.

1.2 Methodology #@CON-MET-CM@# #@COM-PLE-CP@# [e.g. 14 pages]

• Describe and explain the overall methodology, including the concepts, models and assumptions that

underpin your work. Explain how this will enable you to deliver your project’s objectives. Refer to any

important challenges you may have identified in the chosen methodology and how you intend to

overcome them. [e.g. 10 pages]

This section should be presented as a narrative. The detailed tasks and work packages are

described below under ‘Implementation’.

Where relevant, include how the project methodology complies with the ‘do no significant harm’

principle as per Article 17 of Regulation (EU) No 2020/852 on the establishment of a framework to

facilitate sustainable investment (i.e. the so-called 'EU Taxonomy Regulation'). This means that the

methodology is designed in a way it is not significantly harming any of the six environmental

objectives of the EU Taxonomy Regulation.

If you plan to use, develop and/or deploy artificial intellingence (AI) based systems and/or

techniques you must demonstrate their technical robustness. AI-based systems or techniques

should be, or be developed to become:

Excellence – aspects to be taken into account.

− Clarity and pertinence of the project’s objectives, and the extent to which the proposed

work is ambitious, and goes beyond the state of the art.

− Soundness of the proposed methodology, including the underlying concepts, models,

assumptions, interdisciplinary approaches, appropriate consideration of the gender

dimension in research and innovation content, and the quality of open science practices,

including sharing and management of research outputs and engagement of citizens, civil

society and end users where appropriate.

• technically robust, accurate and reproducible, and able to deal with and inform about

possible failures, inaccuracies and errors, proportionate to the assessed risk they pose

• socially robust, in that they duly consider the context and environment in which they

operate

• reliable and function as intended, minimizing unintentional and unexpected harm,

preventing unacceptable harm and safeguarding the physical and mental integrity of

humans

• able to provide a suitable explanation of their decision-making processes, whenever they can have a

significant impact on people’s lives. Describe any national or international research and innovation

activities whose results will feed into the project, and how that link will be established; [e.g. 1 pages]

• Explain how expertise and methods from different disciplines will be brought together and integrated in

pursuit of your objectives. If you consider that an inter-disciplinary approach is unnecessary in the context

of the proposed work, please provide a justification. [e.g. 1/2 page]

• For topics where the work programme indicates the need for the integration of social sciences and

humanities, show the role of these disciplines in the project or provide a justification if you consider that

these disciplines are not relevant to your proposed project. [e.g. 1/2 page]

• Describe how the gender dimension (i.e. sex and/or gender analysis) is taken into account in the project’s

research and innovation content [e.g. 1 page]. If you do not consider such a gender dimension to be

relevant in your project, please provide a justification.

Note: This section is mandatory except for topics which have been identified in the work

programme as not requiring the integration of the gender dimension into R&I content.

Remember that that this question relates to the content of the planned research and innovation

activities, and not to gender balance in the teams in charge of carrying out the project.

Sex and gender analysis refers to biological characteristics and social/cultural factors respectively.

For guidance on methods of sex / gender analysis and the issues to be taken into account, please

refer to https://ec.europa.eu/info/news/gendered-innovations-2-2020-nov-24_en

• Describe how appropriate open science practices are implemented as an integral part of the proposed

methodology. Show how the choice of practices and their implementation are adapted to the nature of

your work, in a way that will increase the chances of the project delivering on its objectives [e.g. 1 page].

If you believe that none of these practices are appropriate for your project, please provide a justification

here.

Open science is an approach based on open cooperative work and systematic sharing of

knowledge and tools as early and widely as possible in the process. Open science practices include

early and open sharing of research (for example through preregistration, registered reports, pre-

prints, or crowd-sourcing); research output management; measures to ensure reproducibility of

research outputs; providing open access to research outputs (such as publications, data, software,

models, algorithms, and workflows); participation in open peer-review; and involving all relevant

knowledge actors including citizens, civil society and end users in the co-creation of R&I agendas

and contents (such as citizen science).

Please note that this question does not refer to outreach actions that may be planned as part of

communication, dissemination and exploitation activities. These aspects should instead be

described below under ‘Impact’.

Part B - Page 9 of 23

• Research data management and management of other research outputs: Applicants

generating/collecting data and/or other research outputs (except for publications) during the project

must provide maximum 1 page on how the data/ research outputs will be managed in line with the FAIR

principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable), addressing the following (the description

should be specific to your project): [1 page]

Types of data/research outputs (e.g. experimental, observational, images, text, numerical) and their

estimated size; if applicable, combination with, and provenance of, existing data.

Findability of data/research outputs: Types of persistent and unique identifiers (e.g. digital object

identifiers) and trusted repositories that will be used.

Accessibility of data/research outputs: IPR considerations and timeline for open access (if open

access not provided, explain why); provisions for access to restricted data for verification purposes.

Interoperability of data/research outputs: Standards, formats and vocabularies for data and

metadata.

Reusability of data/research outputs: Licenses for data sharing and re-use (e.g. Creative Commons,

Open Data Commons); availability of tools/software/models for data generation and

validation/interpretation /re-use.

Curation and storage/preservation costs; person/team responsible for data management and

quality assurance.

Proposals selected for funding under Horizon Europe will need to develop a detailed data

management plan (DMP) for making their data/research outputs findable, accessible,

interoperable and reusable (FAIR) as a deliverable by month 6 and revised towards the end of a

project’s lifetime.

For guidance on open science practices and research data management, please refer to the

relevant section of the HE Programme Guide on the Funding & Tenders Portal.

2. Impact #@IMP-ACT-IA@#

Impact – aspects to be taken into account.

− Credibility of the pathways to achieve the expected outcomes and impacts specified in

the work programme, and the likely scale and significance of the contributions due to

the project.

− Suitability and quality of the measures to maximise expected outcomes and impacts, as

set out in the dissemination and exploitation plan, including communication activities.

The results of your project should make a contribution to the expected outcomes set out for the work programme

topic over the medium term, and to the wider expected impacts set out in the ‘destination’ over the longer term.

In this section you should show how your project could contribute to the outcomes and impacts described in the

work programme, the likely scale and significance of this contribution, and the measures to maximise these

impacts.

Example, not to complete

Call: [insert call identifier] — [insert call name] EU Grants: Application form (HE RIA and IA): V3.1 – 08.09.2022

Part B - Page 10 of 23

2.1 Project’s pathways towards impact [e.g. 4 pages]

• Provide a narrative explaining how the project’s results are expected to make a difference in terms of

impact, beyond the immediate scope and duration of the project. The narrative should include the

components below, tailored to your project.

(a) Describe the unique contribution your project results would make towards (1) the outcomes specified

in this topic, and (2) the wider impacts, in the longer term, specified in the respective destinations in

the work programme.

Be specific, referring to the effects of your project, and not R&I in general in this field.

State the target groups that would benefit. Even if target groups are mentioned in general terms

in the work programme, you should be specific here, breaking target groups into particular

interest groups or segments of society relevant to this project.

The outcomes and impacts of your project may:

• Scientific, e.g. contributing to specific scientific advances, across and within disciplines,

creating new knowledge, reinforcing scientific equipment and instruments, computing

systems (i.e. research infrastructures);

• Economic/technological, e.g. bringing new products, services, business processes to the

market, increasing efficiency, decreasing costs, increasing profits, contributing to

standards’ setting, etc.

• Societal , e.g. decreasing CO2 emissions, decreasing avoidable mortality, improving policies

and decision making, raising consumer awareness.

Only include such outcomes and impacts where your project would make a significant and direct

contribution. Avoid describing very tenuous links to wider impacts. However, include any potential

negative environmental outcome or impact of the project including when expected results are

brought at scale (such as at commercial level). Where relevant, explain how the potential harm

can be managed.

(b) Give an indication of the scale and significance of the project’s contribution to the expected

outcomes and impacts, should the project be successful. Provide quantified estimates where possible

and meaningful.

‘Scale’ refers to how widespread the outcomes and impacts are likely to be. For example, in terms

of the size of the target group, or the proportion of that group, that should benefit over time;

‘Significance’ refers to the importance, or value, of those benefits. For example, number of

additional healthy life years; efficiency savings in energy supply.

Explain your baselines, benchmarks and assumptions used for those estimates. Wherever possible,

quantify your estimation of the effects that you expect from your project. Explain assumptions that

you make, referring for example to any relevant studies or statistics. Where appropriate, try to use

only one methodology for calculating your estimates: not different methodologies for each

partner, region or country (the extrapolation should preferably be prepared by one partner).

Your estimate must relate to this project only - the effect of other initiatives should not be taken

into account.

Example, not to complete

Part B - Page 11 of 23

duration of the project - that may determine whether the desired outcomes and impacts are

achieved. These may include, for example, other R&I work within and beyond Horizon Europe;

regulatory environment; targeted markets; user behaviour. Indicate if these factors might evolve over

time. Describe any mitigating measures you propose, within or beyond your project, that could be

needed should your assumptions prove to be wrong, or to address identified barriers.

Note that this does not include the critical risks inherent to the management of the project itself ,

which should be described below under ‘Implementation’.

2.2 Measures to maximise impact - Dissemination, exploitation and communication #@COM-DIS-VIS-CDV@#

[e.g. 5 pages, including section 2.3]

• Describe the planned measures to maximise the impact of your project by providing a first version of your

‘plan for the dissemination and exploitation including communication activities’. Describe the

dissemination, exploitation and communication measures that are planned, and the target group(s)

addressed (e.g. scientific community, end users, financial actors, public at large).

Please remember that this plan is an admissibility condition, unless the work programme topic

explicitly states otherwise. In case your proposal is selected for funding, a more detailed ‘plan for

dissemination and exploitation including communication activities’ will need to be provided as a

mandatory project deliverable within 6 months after signature date. This plan shall be periodically

updated in alignment with the project’s progress.

Communication1 measures should promote the project throughout the full lifespan of the project.

The aim is to inform and reach out to society and show the activities performed, and the use and

the benefits the project will have for citizens. Activities must be strategically planned, with clear

objectives, start at the outset and continue through the lifetime of the project. The description of

the communication activities needs to state the main messages as well as the tools and channels

that will be used to reach out to each of the chosen target groups.

All measures should be proportionate to the scale of the project, and should contain concrete

actions to be implemented both during and after the end of the project, e.g. standardisation

activities. Your plan should give due consideration to the possible follow-up of your project, once it

is finished. In the justification, explain why each measure chosen is best suited to reach the target

group addressed. Where relevant, and for innovation actions, in particular, describe the measures

for a plausible path to commercialise the innovations.

If exploitation is expected primarily in non-associated third countries, justify by explaining how

that exploitation is still in the Union’s interest.

Describe possible feedback to policy measures generated by the project that will contribute to

designing, monitoring, reviewing and rectifying (if necessary) existing policy and programmatic

measures or shaping and supporting the implementation of new policy initiatives and decisions.

• Outline your strategy for the management of intellectual property, foreseen protection measures, such as

patents, design rights, copyright, trade secrets, etc., and how these would be used to support

exploitation.

If your project is selected, you will need an appropriate consortium agreement to manage

(amongst other things) the ownership and access to key knowledge (IPR, research data etc.).

Where relevant, these will allow you, collectively and individually, to pursue market opportunities

arising from the project.

If your project is selected, you must indicate the owner(s) of the results (results ownership list) in

the final periodic report.

2.3 Summary

Provide a summary of this section by presenting in the canvas below the key elements of your project impact pathway and of the measures to maximise its

impact.

KEY ELEMENT OF THE IMPACT SECTION

SPECIFIC NEEDS

What are the specific needs that

triggered this project?

Example 1

Most airports use process flow-oriented

models based on static mathematical

values limiting the optimal management

of passenger flow and hampering the

accurate use of the available resources

to the actual demand of passengers.

Example 2

Electronic components need to get

smaller and lighter to match the

expectations of the end-users. At the

same time there is a problem of sourcing

of raw materials that has an

environmental impact.

D & E & C MEASURES

What dissemination, exploitation and communication measures will you

apply to the results?

Example 1

Exploitation: Patenting the algorithmic model.

Dissemination towards the scientific community and airports: Scientific

publication with the results of the large-scale demonstration.

Communication towards citizens: An event in a shopping mall to show how

the outcomes of the action are relevant to our everyday lives.

Example 2

Exploitation of the new product: Patenting the new product;

Licencing to major electronic companies.

Dissemination towards the scientific community and industry:

Participating at conferences; Developing a platform of material

compositions for industry; Participation at EC project portfolios to

disseminate the results as part of a group and maximise the visibility vis-à-

vis companies.

EXPECTED RESULTS

What do you expect to generate by the

end of the project?

Example 1

Successful large-scale demonstrator:

Trial with 3 airports of an advanced

forecasting system for proactive airport

passenger flow management.

Algorithmic model:

Novel algorithmic model for proactive

airport passenger flow management.

Example 2

Publication of a scientific discovery on

transparent electronics.

New product: More sustainable

electronic circuits.

Three PhD students trained.

Apple, etc.

Scientific community (field of transparent

electronics).

IMPACTS

What are the expected wider scientific, economic and

societal effects of the project contributing to the expected

impacts outlined in the respective destination in the work

programme?

Example 1

Scientific: New breakthrough scientific discovery on

passenger forecast modelling.

Economic: Increased airport efficiency

Size: 15% increase of maximum passenger capacity in

European airports, leading to a 28% reduction in

infrastructure expansion costs.

Example 2

Scientific: New breakthrough scientific discovery on

transparent electronics.

Economic/Technological: A new market for touch

enabled electronic devices.

Societal: Lower climate impact of electronics

manufacturing (including through material sourcing and

waste management).

OUTCOMES

What change do you expect to see after successful

dissemination and exploitation of project results to the

target group(s)?

Example 1

Up-take by airports: 9 European airports adopt the

advanced forecasting system demonstrated during the

project.

Example 2

High use of the scientific discovery published (measured

with the relative rate of citation index of project

publications).

A major electronic company (Samsung or Apple)

exploits/uses the new product in their manufacturing.

Quality and efficiency of the implementation – aspects to be taken into account

‒ Quality and effectiveness of the work plan, assessment of risks, and appropriateness of the

effort assigned to work packages, and the resources overall

‒ Capacity and role of each participant, and extent to which the consortium as a whole brings

together the necessary expertise.

3.1 Work plan and resources [e.g. 14 pages – including tables]

Please provide the following:

• brief presentation of the overall structure of the work plan;

• timing of the different work packages and their components (Gantt chart or similar);

• detailed work description, i.e.:

o a list of work packages (table 3.1a);

o a description of each work package (table 3.1b);

o a list of deliverables (table 3.1c);

Give full details. Base your account on the logical structure of the project and the stages in

which it is to be carried out. The number of work packages should be proportionate to the

scale and complexity of the project.

You should give enough detail in each work package to justify the proposed resources to

be allocated and also quantified information so that progress can be monitored, including

by the Commission

Resources assigned to work packages should be in line with their objectives and

deliverables. You are advised to include a distinct work package on ‘project management’,

and to give due visibility in the work plan to ‘data management’ ‘dissemination and

exploitation’ and ‘communication activities’, either with distinct tasks or distinct work

packages.

You will be required to update the ‘plan for the dissemination and exploitation of results

including communication activities’, and a ‘data management plan’, (this does not apply

to topics where a plan was not required.) This should include a record of activities related

to dissemination and exploitation that have been undertaken and those still planned.

Please make sure the information in this section matches the costs as stated in the budget

table in section 3 of the application forms, and the number of person months, shown in

the detailed work package descriptions.

• a list of milestones (table 3.1d);

• a list of critical risks, relating to project implementation, that the stated project's objectives may not be

achieved. Detail any risk mitigation measures. You will be able to update the list of critical risks and

mitigation measures as the project progresses (table 3.1e);

The individual participants of the consortium are described in a separate section under Part A. There is no need

to repeat that information here.

• Describe the consortium. How does it match the project’s objectives, and bring together the necessary

disciplinary and inter-disciplinary knowledge. Show how this includes expertise in social sciences and

humanities, open science practices, and gender aspects of R&I, as appropriate. Include in the description

affiliated entities and associated partners, if any.

• Show how the partners will have access to critical infrastructure needed to carry out the project activities.

• Describe how the members complement one another (and cover the value chain, where appropriate)

• In what way does each of them contribute to the project? Show that each has a valid role, and adequate

resources in the project to fulfil that role.

• If applicable, describe the industrial/commercial involvement in the project to ensure exploitation of the

results and explain why this is consistent with and will help to achieve the specific measures which are

proposed for exploitation of the results of the project (see section 2.2).

• Other countries and international organisations: If one or more of the participants requesting EU funding

is based in a country or is an international organisation that is not automatically eligible for such funding

(entities from Member States of the EU, from Associated Countries and from one of the countries in the

exhaustive list included in the Work Programme General Annexes B are automatically eligible for EU

funding), explain why the participation of the entity in question is essential to successfully carry out the

project.
