What is project management team do?

The Project Management Team (PMT) is coordinating the work and overlooking the progress of the project, checking that everything is done according to the rules (Commission and internal rules). The PMT is also in charge of resources, IP, knowledge and risk management and the follow up of the Grant Agreement (GA) and Consortium Agreement (CA), organising consortium and Executive Council meetings. The PMT is in constant interaction with the Coordinator and WP coordinators. The PMT also interacts with the scientific officer at the Commission.

How to work effectively with your team?

To work efficiently the PMT needs to be informed regularly when things happen. The PMT is there to help you!

Risk management is an important part of the work of the PMT: when things are going wrong we should be able to correct them as soon as possible
