  1. Quality Objectives Kirsti Mijnhijmer20th March 2014 - Copenhagen, Denmark

  2. Results orientation – some terminology • Result – what is intended to be changed in the programme area • Outputs– direct products of the programme, intended to contribute to results. They are mainly developed at project level (products/services). • Results orientation – for the 2014-2020 period, the focus is shifting from only measuring outputs (products/services) to measuring the results that they contribute to (change in the programme area).

  3. Why quality objectives? • Purpose: to ensure that project outputs (products & services) meet high quality standards, and (are likely to) contribute to the results sought by the Programme. • Quality objectives • Help to bridge the gap between the project outputs and programme results • Indicate the characteristics of the type of projects the programme aims to support; those that will deliver meaningful change. • Form a reference point for evaluating project applications – basis for selection critearia

  4. Why quality objectives?

  5. Quality Objectives • Concrete • Innovative • Focused • Relevant • Responsible • Viable • Transnational • Strategic • Value-for-money

  7. Quality Objectives – Innovative, Relevant • Innovative: the project output is new or innovative to the partner organisations, the partner countries involved, or the Programme area. • Relevant: Project outputs take into account relevant conditions in each part of the project’s target area. This means that the project outcomes: • Demonstrate a high relevance for the development needs and opportunities in the target area. • Take into account the level of maturity in the field of intervention for each part of the target area. • Demand-driven: The development of project outputs is based on demonstrable stakeholder demand and include stakeholder involvement (interface)

  8. Quality Objectives – Viable, Transnational • Viable: project outputs are supported by appropriate business and dissemination models that allow the project output to become self-sustaining when the project support ends. Business models describe: • Marketing plans for the project output to reach identified relevant target groups. Note: project branding should focus on project outcomes, not on promoting the project. • Realistic provision/delivery models. For example, ensuring that that the project output is delivered by organisations with the right competences, and well integrated, etc. • Transnational: the design of project outputs clearly draws on the results of transnational cooperation. • E.g. transferring models/knowledge/technology from one region to another, partners complementing each others’ competences and resources, combining different regional skill sets, gaining a critical mass, etc.

  9. Important considerations • When developing your project, make sure to take the quality objectives into account. The selection criteria will be based on them! • Use the different sections of the application form to demonstrate how your project addresses the quality objectives. • Describe concrete project outputs = products/services and their relevant components.
