  1. Project idea The process of discovery and development of drugs is ever longer and costly. It happens in an environment of research teams from different organizations (coming from the pharmaceutical industry, academia, SMEs, etc.) often placed in distant locations where there the need for constant discussions and interactions. Those communications seldom take place based on graphical elements (3D, 2D, images…) that might require strict confidentiality due to their high industrial value. Consequently, the majority of interactions is performed in presence meetings, which is costly and time consuming. The idea is to develop a software that enables research teams from the drug discovery and development sector (pharmaceutical, biotechnological, etc) to collaborate from a distance and discuss in real time over graphical elements (3D molecules, result tables, images, etc.) without the need of face-to-face meetings so often, accelerating the entire process.

  2. Basic Characteristics • Small-medium collaborative project • Funding: around 3.000.000 € • Length: maximum of 3 years • Related fields: IST – eHealth, IST – eWork, GROWTH, Quality of Life, etc. Possible topics: • IST II.2.2: New methods of work and electronic commerce - Smart organisations • To explore and validate novel technologies, applications, architectures and practices aimed at supporting the transformation of profit and non-profit entities into "smart" organisations: knowledge driven, internetworked, dynamically adaptive to new organisational forms and practices, learning as well as agile in their ability to create and exploit the opportunities offered by the digital economy.” • IST II.1.5: Promoting broad adoption of eCommerce & eWork in regional and sectoral settings. • GROWTH 1.4.1: New methods of organisation, work and human capital improvement • The aim is to develop new organisational and work practices together with developments in industrial products, processes and services, and the appropriate human capital, competence and skills. RTD should address methodologies and tools for efficient organisation, knowledge and technology management, and support close integration and networking of people, organisations and technologies, recognising the importance for innovation / competitiveness of better procurement methods and decision making tools.

  3. Potential Partners

  4. Exercise 1 • 1) List the objectives of the project • 2) Select an acronym • 3) Choose the partners for the consortium

  5. WRAP-UP 1 Project objectives LINK3D aims to develop, test and prepare the commercial exploitation of a real-time, interactive distant collaboration environment for professionals working in an strategically crucial field: Molecular Discovery (MD). The specific objectives of the project are: 1) To gather detailed requirements of MD professionals in terms of tele collaboration. 2) To develop a set of software applications, configuring a real-time tele-collaboration environment for Drug Discovery professionals. 3) To test the system in real-life environments, both for inter-organisational and intra-organisational collaborative settings and considering the different types of actors involved (industry, academia). 4) To analyse the potential market, the business possibilities of the LINK3D system, and prepare its commercial exploitation, considering extension to other sectors.

  6. WRAP-UP 1 Partners LINK3D:

  14. WRAP-UP 2 Milestones list: M1 Definition of user requirements M2 Completion of the system specifications (first version) M3 Completion of the first version of the LINK3D system M4 Completion of the first stage of the real-world testing M5 Completion of the market analysis M6 Completion of the improved system specifications M7 Completion of an improved version of the LINK3D system M8 Completion of the second stage of the real-world testing M9 Completion of the business plan M10 LINK3D project completion

  15. Exercise 3 • 1) GANTT chart • 2) PERT diagram

  16. WRAP-UP 3

  17. Exercise 4 • Responsibility Assignment Matrix, defined by project roles • R: Responsible • W: Major contribution • I: Minor contribution

  18. WRAP-UP 4: RAM LINK3D

  19. Exercise 5 • RAM of efforts • 3 steps: • Relative weight of each WP • Estimate the total effort amount • Estimate the breakdown of efforts per task • Hint: the total amount can be estimated dividing the total funding by 5000-10000 Euro (depending on the consortium profile). • Hint: Estimate the relation between R, W, I: • W= 2 I • R= 3 I

  20. WRAP-UP 5: RAM LINK3D

  21. Exercise 6 • Construct the budget • Take into account the type of expenditure: personnel, equipment, consumables, travel, subcontracting, indirect costs. • Take into account that funding agencies do not always cover 100% of the direct costs of the project (difference between “budget” and “funding”).
