Efforts for the project Sample Clauses

Efforts for the project. The Project effort is summarized in the Project Effort Form. It shows that management activities count for about 3.6% of the total budget and they do not exceed 7% of each participant budget. The core activities (WP3 and WP4) require the 65% of the budget (about 25% and 40% respectively for WP3 and WP4), while the coordination and dissemination activities count for the remaining percentage (15% each for WP2 and WP5). Concerning the amount of required financing, it should be considered that the work is mainly made of study and analysis activities. This implies that the most part of resources are human resources involved in working and expert groups. Their effort can be measured in man-months (MM) of FTE (Full-Time-Employers) units. An average cost around 7,000 €/MM (20% overheads included) is considered for estimation. This should be considered made of: a weighted average of two different personnel cost categories such as engineers (for working group) and researchers/scientists (for working and expert groups); travel costs; other minor costs (publications, conference fees, equipment). On a global view, the core activities (WP3 and WP4) and the coordination activity (WP2) require a total effort of about 80 MM in 21 months (see ▇▇▇▇▇ chart above). This is estimated considering a working group of 8 persons involved part-time in the project. Concerning the participants budgets, the form shows that, generally, Civil Protection agencies are mainly involved in the WP3 (Civil Protection systems analysis) and scientific partners are mainly involved in WP4. It is important to note that the CP-CH budget is substantially lesser than other Civil Protections authorities. This is due to the fact that many activities related to the Greek Civil Protection system are performed by the scientific partner (TEI-CR). On the contrary, DDSC and ANPC directly contribute to research and innovation strategies definition. These choices depends on the organization and internal resources of the different Civil Protections authorities. DDSC and ANPC are national agencies, while CP-CH is the Civil Protection Unit of a local public body. Finally, INFN is obviously involved in the coordination activity to complement EGEE project, but it also provides contribution to WP4.
