Application Service

We offer a comprehensive grant application service which includes the identification of suitable projects, completion of the application forms, all negotiation with the appropriate Commission officials and a follow-through service - seeing the application form its inception to a, hopefully, successful conclusion.

We can also arrange meetings in Brussels and Luxembourg with appropriate Commission officials for you to put your case for grant assistance.

Success cannot be guaranteed but our 30 years experience in submitting many and varied applications has given us an insight into the hundreds of grants that are available to organisations throughout the world.

There are a choice of fee structures:

  • fees charged cover the preparation, submission, and monitoring of applications together with the necessary negotiations and follow-through.
  • payment for actual time spent, at our normal daily rate;
  • fixed monthly fee for unlimited Consultancy time;
  • part-fixed, part-percentage on results, for unlimited Consultancy time;
  • fixed "project fee" covering the whole process from start to finish.

Strategic Review

How does your organisation know:

1. Which activities you undertake qualify for European Commission grant aid?
2. When to apply for the identified grants?
3. Where to apply for the identified grants?
4. How much might you receive, and when?
______________________

We can prepare a Strategic Review Report which becomes the blueprint for a future "multi-annual" grants application strategy. To complete the Review we will:

  • Discuss with the organisation its current activities and plans for the future;
  • Examine the existing literature, for example Annual Reports; and
  • Discuss the activities with the relevant Commission officials.
  • Following the analysis the we will produce a Report outlining:
  • Which activities would be eligible for European funding;
  • When applications should be made;
  • Where the applications should be submitted;
  • How much grant could be anticipated, and when, if successful; and
  • An "Action Timetable" detailing what action should be taken and when.

Success cannot be guaranteed but our 34 years experience in submitting many and varied applications has given us an insight into the hundreds of grants that are available to organisations throughout the world.
