[Fiware] Fwd: Future Internet PPP Call 2 Negotiations - Common texts/content

Dear all,

  Please find an email recently sent by the EC regarding governance model and KPIs.   Unfortunately, it got wrongly unclassified in my Inbox so it passed unadvertised to me at the very first moment.

  Regarding the governance model, and as far as I understand, there is a new version coming which should take into consideration the concerns we already expressed to the EC on the governance model (e.g., incorporation of text making precedence of DoW over Agreements more clear).   So there is nothing definitive we can say until that version arrives.

  Regarding the KPIs, I find those defined at programme-level rather hard to measure.   It's not clear to me how much useful they will be.   On the other hand, KPIs measuring our contribution to the programme (slide 5) are not that bad for us.   Regarding project-level KPIs in slide 6, I wonder why they ask for reference implementations in open source when there is no requirement in that respect in the DoW.   I will ask for a clarification.

  Nevertheless, we have a FI-WARE PCC meeting next Thursday to discuss on these points and your input to that meeting is more than welcome.

  Best regards,

-- Juanjo

Dear Project Co-ordinator of a FI-PPP phase II proposal,

As confirmed in our e-mail following the "Future Internet PPP Call 2 Negotiation Workshop, Brussels, 4/5 February 2013", here is the additional information regarding common texts/content for inclusion in your Description of Work (DoW).

1) FI-PPP Governance
The attached FI-PPP Management Organisation Model text should be included in your DoW. It corresponds to the version 6 of the document that was already circulated to you previously.
2) Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
CONCORD made a presentation (attached) on the FI-PPP KPI framework at the workshop.
2a) Project-level: You should include the relevant project-level KPIs from this presentation in your DoW. (NB. It is of course expected that you also include other KPIs that are specific to your project).

2b) Programme-level: Note that CONCORD will establish an evaluation process for the programme-level KPIs and you should therefore ensure that the relevant programme level KPIs and their measuring are foreseen in your DoW, so that your project can contribute accordingly to CONCORD and meet the programme-level objectives.

3) FI-PPP programme communications
In addition to your participation in the "Communication and Dissemination Working Group" your DoW's list of dissemination events/activities should include the yearly FI-PPP programme-level event that, as agreed in the workshop, should in principle take place in March 2014 and March 2015. (Venue and exact date will be defined by the working group later).

4)  Resources for programme level activities
You must explicitly allocate financial and human resources to fulfil your role at the FI-PPP programme level. We request each project to budget for a minimum of 24 person-months per year and 150.000 EURO for the total project duration for FI-PPP programme activities.

Finally, when it comes to "Openness and cooperation beyond the FI-PPP" we have already presented this and circulated information about it. We expect this dimension to be fully represented in your DoW.

We would like to kindly ask you to implement these actions in your Description of Work and bring the negotiations to a swift close as the formal deadline of 28 February has passed.

Kind regards,

On behalf of the EC FI-PPP team,

Ragnar Bergström

Subject: Future Internet PPP Call 2 Negotiation Workshop, Brussels, 4/5 February 2013 - Follow-up


Dear Project Co-ordinator of FI-PPP phase II proposal,

We would like to thank you and all the project representatives for the active contributions during the workshop.

During the finalisation of the FI-PPP Call 2 projects' negotiations we are focusing on the commitment towards the FI-PPP Programme success and strong collaboration implemented by the following actions:


  *   New governance structure reflected by a common text in the DoW.
  *   Quantitative KPIs (notably on the usage of the GEs and the trials): not only for Use Case Trial projects (UC) but also for FI-WARE, XIFI and Concord. KPIs on the external view of the PPP (e.g. success stories) should also be included.
  *   Explicit identification of the GEs that UCs will / intend to use + a validation strategy.
  *   Milestones:

  *   M6: discussion of the architecture approaches of the different UCs vis-à-vis FI-WARE and XIFI --> see draft standard text below.
  *   M6 (at the latest): Information from phase 2 projects about what phase 3 projects may use, a full description, and under what conditions (both inside and outside the PPP).
  *   M6: UCs to provide requirements on infrastructure needs, to be consolidated by XIFI in M6. This does not have to be a UC deliverable per se, but at least the commitment to give this input must be stated.
  *   M15: availability of platforms. The UCs should be aligned along a M15 milestone. --> Concord to make a first draft of a PPP wide GANTT chart reflecting this.

  *   Common articulated approach on FI-PPP programme communications.
  *   Openness and cooperation beyond the FI-PPP reflected by a common text in DoW.
  *   All projects must allocate explicitly financial and human resources to fulfil their roles at the FI-PPP programme level: Governance, management, communications, etc.  Amounts for the costs, as well as person-months.
  *   There should be clear Terms & Conditions for usage of GEs and specific enablers with specific deliverables at month 6 and month 15 (within and beyond the FI-PPP).
  *   Public deliverables on Commission websites: --> see standard text below.
  *   Kick-off meetings should be announced to EC and include presentation on the FI-PPP Programme dimension (EC to present when possible). FI-WARE should also be invited to present its role within the FI-PPP.
  *   Participation in FI-PPP Phase 2 Architecture Week.

Elements of draft standard texts for DoW, in addition to the ones already provided in relation to the workshop:


  1.  "The project aims to use the Generic Enablers (and Specific Enablers) in the list / picture below. A draft architecture including Generic Enablers and Specific Enablers will be defined at month X (latest: M6). This architecture will be discussed within the Architecture Board with FI-WARE and XIFI, and suggestions by FI-WARE and XIFI architects will be taken into account for the specification of a revised architecture at month Y."
  2.  "Deliverables marked as “public (PU)” in the Dissemination Level column in the Deliverable List table above will be made available to the general public via the project’s web site, within a month after their formal approval in a review report. The deliverables will include a copyright notice. Upon request by the Commission, public deliverables will be made available to the Commission for publication on a Commission web site, with a copyright notice as indicated by the consortium. Such deliverables will be made available to the Commission in a publishable format."

The European Commission services will provide the common texts on:


  *   The new governance structure,
  *   The programme related KPIs,
  *   Openness and cooperation towards other initiatives.

We would like to kindly ask you to implement these actions in your Description of Work.

Kind regards,

On behalf of the EC FI-PPP team,

Ragnar Bergström
