Decision process and conflict resolution Sample Clauses

Decision process and conflict resolution. Decisions will normally be taken by seeking consensus. However, after a reasonable amount of time has been allowed to illustration and defence of conflicting positions, in order to avoid deadlock in project operational progress, the approval of a two-third majority of partners will be sufficient. In the case of a tie the chairman of the meeting has two options: • Option 1 is to make use of his/her decisive vote right (in the case of equality of votes) • Option 2 is to escalate the issue To reach a decision there needs to be a majority vote from among the principal contractors (1 representative from each partner institution and the Project Coordinator). In the case of a tie again (equality of votes) the vote of the Project Coordinator will be predominant. The Executive Steering Group (SG) has the explicit right to change budgets and workloads during the course of the project and to have a principal contractor or assistant contractor expelled from the consortium. Either the SG or the Project Coordinator can initiate the conflict resolution procedure. Should an agreement prove impossible, the Project Coordinator will appoint an independent referee in coordination with the Consortium members whose judgement will be considered conclusive.
