Reporting

Consortia submit a periodic report for each reporting period, tied to interim payments, and a final report at the end of the project that sets the final grant amount.

There will be one or several interim payments linked to a periodic report, depending on the duration of the project. At the end of the project, the consortium will be invited to submit a report on the basis of which the final grant amount will be calculated.
