Objectives
The BSC Project Management Office (PMO) is responsible for detecting and communicating research funding opportunities within the centre; coordinating and contributing to research project proposals; managing contract negotiation; and other legal, financial and administrative aspects of contracts and projects. These include both publicly funded projects as well as collaborations with industry. PMO also maintains a comprehensive database of project information used to generate reports on the centre’s performance in various areas. PMO is also responsible for following and anticipating developments in relevant funding programmes and helping the centre to adapt to changing requirements. The aim is to increase BSC-CNS’s capacity to leverage competitive funding and to professionally manage results-oriented research.
