• Management of Trajectory and mission will be included
in wider, more integrated cockpit & mission demonstrations
(and in landing gear WP for SOG)
• Management of Aircraft Energy will carry on in WPs dedicated
to innovative wing, electrical chain, major loads, etc.
New activities will address other issues in aircraft power management.
Demonstrators and test rigs used in Clean Sky will be continued in
Clean Sky 2 and completed with new integration environments.
• Systems ITD will focus on demonstration and tight integration

Proposal Template
The applicants will submit a proposal, using a template (IA or RIA)
composed of several parts, of which 2 constitute the technical
proposal:
• Part B-I: limited to 70 pages and
detailing the main aspects of the
proposal to be evaluated (budget,
timeline, effort, WBS, Risks)

(excellence, impact, evaluation)
• Part B-II: giving details about the
applicant entity and any participant
in the work * (legal entity, CV, corecompetencies and background) and
any related Ethics & Security aspects
* Either Consortium, Clusters, single entity and any Third parties involved in the project
Not legally binding
Proposal Template: Part BI
Applicants shall submit one proposal per Topic, in case of multiapplications.
The proposal template is structured to address all the sub-criteria
composing each of the 3 evaluation criteria and they will be used during

Financial Viability*:
Simplification, only coordinators of actions (projects) ≥ 500k€ in funding
Other beneficiaries in case of grounds on their financial capacity subject to
JU discretion. Documents to be sent to REA
Guarantee Fund:
5% retained from JU grant value, deducted from the prefinancing payment.
New in Clean Sky to better protect the action from financial risks associated to
the implementation of the action
Audit Certificates:
Simplification, only for final payments/per beneficiary and only when funding related
to direct costs ≥ €325 000 €
* Except public bodies and other exceptions
•
CS vs CS2 main differences in CfP
process
Topic value not anymore an eligibility criterion, only “indicative,”
however value and efficiency of costs resources allocated in the
proposal will be duly evaluated
• Only external independent evaluators
• ethical aspects of the proposal, complete the self assessment and
“tag” any aspect which may require attention
• Combination of H2020 – EU Structural Funds encouraged but
avoidance of double funding of same cost item and co-financing to be
met
CS vs CS2 main differences in CfP
• The role of the ITD/IADP Topic Manager indicated in the Work Plan, rules
for submissions and model Grant Agreement for Partners
• No official “negotiation” phase in H2020, from evaluation to “grant
preparation”, proposals evaluated as they are and not on their potential
• However “technical sessions” envisaged with Topic Manager and JU based
on the CSJU “topic” logic to fit into the ITD/IADP as set in the WP
• Time to grant :
- 5m max for evaluation process +
- 3m max for grant preparation
Target of max 8 months for grant signature, efforts from both
coordinator/beneficiaries and JU side will be crucial to meet this target

CPW01 EVAL & HEAR
Admissibility and Eligibility checks
• The Admissibility and Eligibility of proposals is checked
together by the JU and the European Commission
• If the application is admissible, eligible and meets the
special conditions set out in the CSJU Work Plan (or if
admissibility and/or eligibility cannot immediately be
determined), it will be evaluated by the independent
experts.
CPW01 EVAL & HEAR
14
Admissibility/Eligibility Criteria
 Receipt before deadline
 Firm deadlines
 Completeness of proposal
 Presence of all requested forms
 “Out of scope”
 A proposal will only be deemed ineligible in clear cut case
 Other criteria may apply
 E.g. Affiliation
Guiding Principles
• Independence
– The proposals are evaluated by independent external experts, that
do not represent neither their employer , nor their country!
• Impartiality
– All proposals are treated equally and evaluated impartially on their
merits, irrespective of their origin or the identity of the applicants.
• Objectivity
– Each proposal is evaluated as submitted (as it is written); meaning
on its own merit, not its potential if certain changes were to be
made.
• Accuracy
– The proposals are evaluated against the official evaluation criteria
and the call or topic the proposal addresses, and nothing else.
• Consistency
– The same standard of judgment is applied to each proposal
Criteria & Guidance for Evaluation
• Experts will evaluate the applications on the basis of
three criteria:
1. Excellence (relevant to the topic)
2. Impact
3. Quality and efficiency of the implementation
• The criteria are adapted to each type of actions, as
specified in the Work Plan
Proposal Scoring
• Each of the three criteria to be scored 0-5
– Half-scores used where appropriate (e.g. 3.5)
– Full range to be considered; but Experts need to be able to duly justify scoring
based on their definitions
– Scores must pass thresholds if a proposal is to be eligible for funding. Proposers
may modify proposals and/or reply to comments and questions before and
during the hearings.
• Thresholds apply to individual criteria…
– Individual threshold is 3
• …and to the total score
– Higher than the sum of the individual thresholds
– Overall threshold is 10
Definition of the Scoring Levels
0
The proposal fails to address the criterion under examination or cannot be
judged due to missing or incomplete information
1
Poor. The criterion is addressed in an inadequate manner, or there are
serious inherent weaknesses.
2
Fair. While the proposal broadly addresses the criterion, there are significant
weaknesses.
3
Good.* The proposal addresses the criterion well, but with a number of
shortcomings. [although improvements would be necessary]
4
Very Good. The proposal addresses the criterion very well, but with a small
number of shortcomings. [although certain improvements are still possible]
5
Excellent. The proposal successfully addresses all relevant aspects of the
criterion; any shortcomings are minor.
* Good constitutes the threshold value in each of the three criteria
Note: In brackets, FP7 wording for reference
Concluding Remarks
Opportunity to fund research project in alternative to classical H2020 Collaborative
Research Project scheme, with very focused technical targets.
Peculiarities with respect to H2020 on participation rules, proposal preparation and
proposal evaluation (but less than for FP7).
Main advices to write a good proposal:
• Fulfil the requirements contained in the topic description.
• Read carefully the documentation of the call.
• In particular rules of participation in order to understand how your proposal will
be evaluated (A summary is provided in this presentation).
• Check eligibility criteria.
• Find complementary partners in order to have a good consortium if needed.
All information about the call and tools in order to help you to apply can be found
on the Clean Sky Web Site: www.cleansky.eu.
