Efficient Contract Administration for NICe Funded Projects: A Guide to Economic Reporting

This guide covers the essential economic issues in contract administration of a Nordic Innovation Centre (NICe) funded project. From Expressions of Interest (EOI) to final reporting, it outlines the decision-making process, cooperation agreements, budget revisions, milestone planning, disbursement procedures, and reporting requirements. The emphasis is on clear, dynamic, and outcome-oriented project management aligned with NICe principles. It details the project owner, manager, steering group roles, changes in budget, disbursement guidelines, and the importance of accurate financial reporting to maintain NICe’s interest. The guide provides a structured approach to project finalization, financial accounts management, and reporting routines, including status reports, economic reports, expert reports, and administrative reports. The goal is to create high-quality publications in English following NICe guidelines, catering to the public's needs and fostering innovation.
