Stronger Simplification On-Demand Workshop

Walking through all procedures, tools and costs to make it really happen (SCO, IT, selection, control and application package)

SCOs are in the air but at what conditions and under what surveillance ? This training is the occasion to screen all the options and requirements to integrate it in Programmes based on ex-ante discussions with auditors, in calls and in projets to allow full simplification and security for both Authorities and Beneficiaries. This seminar offers also the possibility to tackle in details the possible application and precise calculations and related risks for soft and hard interventions in relation with key results and outputs (and not only inputs) based on the latest guidances and best practices of simplification of programming, selecting, contracting, verifying and monitoring projects.
