Instructions
This chapter consists of two tables. The first is the listing of effort per partner divided between different work packages.
Make sure that the partner efforts are appropriately balanced and in line with their role in the project. A partner in a supporting role should not have as many person months as a partner that acts as the leading technology developer.
The second is a justification of other costs, that need to be itemised if they are greater than 15% of the personnel costs of the individual partner organisation.
You should give a short yet clear justification of why a specific cost item is needed, how much it costs, and to which Work Package (and task, if possible) the cost relates to.
