This structure allows satisfaction of the equal representation of each member with fast simplified co-ordinated
communication lines allowing concerted decisions and fast project corrective actions implementation
Project Management Approach:
This project management involving Smes & public/private Laboratories and considering the objectives to reach,
will need both :
1. an on-line implementation for the day-to-day operation via a project management server /portal
2. proven multicultural methods with exhaustive review methods
3. a cost oriented approach as regard the market affordability of the project produced results.
This approach should produce no-conflicting situations and undue extra-management loads on the participants,
still providing the necessary data to monitor and inflect the project deployment.
Methods for the Project Management :
We propose to deploy, the following blend of methods with 30 year experience in project management :
1. Use our experience in design of reporting methods for large aerospace firm, our knowledge of different
methods (Métier/ Cisi, GMS, ICG, ….) largely used in space and power-technologies, combined to a
sustain project metrology (SAL.)and experience gained trough management of several EU projects.
2. Use a model of multicultural management based on the project manager involvement in the EU
Commission Unit project – “Innovation across cultural borders” & our EU contracted study “Culture
impact in projects 1993)
3. Use the latest techniques as exposed in the professional literature (Intern..Journal of PM)
4. take into account, for the server, elements of the PRINCE methodology, a structured method for effective
on-line/off line management
This rich blend and this broad experience-based methodology spectrum, will provide all necessary routines to
ensure effectiveness of the project design, monitoring, decision, risk assessment and corrective activities while
providing expertise and templates for communication, responsibilities, and metrics of key financial, technical and
administrative progress reporting.
Description of the Management responsibilities :
Executive Committee:
A project executive committee will be formed to decide about the high level management issues, including
technical, exploitation, financial, planning and control matters. Membership of this Executive Committee will
designated by the consortium members. The Executive Committee will meet twice a year and at any time in case of
urgent special issue to be discussed.
