Submission & evaluation process

PRIMARY Open Call for proposals will be submitted digitally through the opencalls.fund platform at https://opencalls.fund/open-call/primary. All the documents needed for the application (PRIMARY Open Call Kit) can be found on the PRIMARY website, on the section dedicated to the Open Call (https://primary-project.eu/open-call/). Interested Applicants should visit the PRIMARY website for any updates and the FAQ section available in the opencalls.fund platform (https://opencalls.fund/open-call/primary/faq).

Submissions received through any other channel will be automatically discarded.

Documents required in subsequent phases will be submitted via dedicated channels (e.g. via email or via the opencalls.fund platform), which will be indicated by the PRIMARY consortium in the contracting phase.

In case multiple versions of the same application are submitted, only the last version will be evaluated. All the previous ones will be discarded.

Throughout the entire process, the confidentiality of applicants’ identities and the contents of the proposals will be rigorously upheld. Any details pertaining to the proposed solution will be handled with the utmost discretion.

By applying to PRIMARY Open Call consortia automatically accept the terms and conditions of the Open Call as described in the Open Call Kit.

Evaluation:

After the PRIMARY Open Call is closed, an eligibility check process will be carried out by the PRIMARY Monitoring Committee to discard non-eligible applications. Following the eligibility check, a remote evaluation will be done by carefully selected external reviewers. Each proposal will be reviewed by two (2) external evaluators with specific specific experience and academic, technical and/or industry knowledge surrounding agriculture, bioeconomy, biodiversity, circular economy and sustainability.

The evaluators will have to evaluate each proposal under the specific evaluation criteria:

Alignment

Excellence

Impact

Value

Organizational capacity and sufficiency

All award criteria have the same weight. Each award criterion can be scored from 1 to 5 with a threshold of 3 points in each category, and a minimum of 15 points in total.
