Assistance for European Project Management

This contract is for providing assistance in project management for the preparation, negotiation, and execution of a European project, as well as training related to responses to European project calls by the Toulouse City Council/Toulouse Metropolis. The aim is to leverage opportunities offered by the European Union, particularly towards the end of the 2021-2027 programming period, to position and affirm our territory as a European metropolis. The focus will primarily be on the Horizon Europe innovation and research program, but assistance may also extend to other European programs (LIFE, MIE, EUI, etc.). This framework agreement will select eight contractors who will provide assistance and advice to support the contracting authority in all stages of preparing a response to a European project call. Depending on needs, support will also include follow-up on the proposal and contract negotiations with the funding organization, and if the project is selected, project management and coordination. Training will be offered to aid implementation, with a priority on responses to project calls where the community is the coordinator.
