3.2.2.1 Designing Stage

The first stage of the planning phase of a EUPM² project is the Designing Stage. During the Designing stage, the project idea is transformed to a project proposal and submitted to the appropriate Contracting Authority (CA) for the financing decision. The Project idea is developed into a specific proposal using the template (Project Application Form) provided by the Contracting Authority (CA).

The following activities are part of the Designing stage:

• Identification of project stakeholders and preparation of the Project Stakeholder Matrix including initial partnership and team members, as well as target groups, beneficiaries and potential project audiences for communication and dissemination strategies.
• Creation of the Project Logical Framework describing the analytical process to identify the project’s hierarchy of objectives as well as linking them with outputs and activities needed to achieve them. The Project Logical Framework is an input for the elaboration of the Project Application Form.
• Elaboration of the Project Application Form, whose content and structure are defined by the Contracting Authority (CA). Generally, includes the justification of the project in terms of impact and excellence, the alignment of the project idea with the call objectives, the specific objectives, the outputs produced, the resources, costs and time needed to implement and achieve the impact as well as the project governance model.
