Distributing Pre-financnig

August 7th, 2008 — Irishkid

Hello,

This is for Research for SME programme

I have a question concerning the distrubtion of the pre-financing. In the Coodinators meeting the Commission stronly suggested that the prefinancing be sent the SMEs and then the RTD performers should bill the SMEs. Recently I have heard from some larger RTD performers who are coordinating projects in the same programme that they are sending the prefinancing direct to the RTD performers who would then send a proforma bill to the smes. This would all be defined in the Consortium agreeent. Is this process also ok?

Thanks

Pre-financing: role of the coordinator

July 9th, 2008 — Johanna B.

Hello all,

I’m quite new in the FP7 project management and I will need some explanations about the pre-financing. We are coordinator and I want to know how it happens when we receive the pre-financing towards the other partners. Do we need to their budget or proofs from them before paying them?

Thanks a lot!

Johanna
