Meeting objectives and agenda
P4ITS objectives (last period) Overall project objectives Mutual learning and training Set up an external consultation process Raise awareness on PPI in C-ITS purchasers Propose key recommendations (guidelines) for PPI in C-ITS Consolidate P4ITS into a sustainable longer-term network Specific WP6 objectives (M25 – M30) Finalise recommendations Decide on the need and conditions for the continuation of the network
WP6: Final recommendations and continuation framework WP6 objectives (M25 – M30): Finalise recommendations Decide on the need and conditions for the continuation of the network Task 6.1 - Network recommendations Network meeting # 9 (19-20 January 2016, Brussels, Belgium) Reach a common position on some topics and propose some recommendations, based on draft doc; The network recommendations: Target Group(s): addressed to themselves (as procuring authorities), to a specific type of external stakeholders (e.g. industry suppliers) or to the community at large; Rationale: be specific, realistic and support the deployment of C-ITS through wider use of PPI approaches. PPI will be presented in a critical way, with advantages and disadvantages, and in the context of the different tools supporting C-ITS deployment, with areas where PPI is more adequate than other tools. Format: short deliverable, easy to communicate on; attractive format for a wide dissemination is expected. Task 6.2 - Network continuation Network meeting # 10 (5-6 April 2016, Vigo, Spain) Decide whether the network will continue its activity after the end of the project : YES or NO, format, objectives in a wider context (pilot deployment projects, readiness of the C-ITS market, number of PPI cases undertaken in Europe, implementation of the new public procurement directives, etc.) If YES, sign a letter of commitment, highlighting the main objectives of the follow-up network, potential format of the network, its sources of financing (e.g., subscription based) and its terms of reference.

Second Annual Review Main outcomes: Excellent progress Consortium well working during meetings, although few partners did not attend some meeting the coordinator was convincing that all partners strongly contributed to the work, reports and review Despite limited resources, capability to produce valuable outcomes and intangible benefits in terms of knowledge, know-how, mutual learning, awareness raising, with strong focus on its objectives External consultation run methodically and efficiently, and has brought valuable information PPI flowchart well defined and considered useful for public authorities Recommendations scalable to the pan EU level as well as down to local city level, usable by practitioner as well as supplier, to be disseminated widely Excellent project management, on time, well organised and proactive, with progress indicators on track Three public bodies joined as associated partners are measure of success to build a longer term network Recommendations: Involvement of industry suppliers to gather their feedback and consider entire innovation ecosystem

P4ITS conclusion / way forward
Expectations & contributions for continuation CTAG & VIGO: good learning, C-ITS focus, OK to continue provided there are funding opportunities. VTT: good learning, funding needed to continue, need to see benefit and go from high to practical level to be able produce best practices for daily work of Finnish procurers. LIST: new partnership to investigate & provide procurement tool to support the PPI tendering and select the best solution; funding opportunity could be MG6.1-2016 (not a PPI call), interest by city of Tampere. OHLC: interest to continue, but need to define the right framework. ATE: good network, good dynamics, interest to continue collecting best practices examples to create a body of knowledge on PPI (funding needed, CSA?), but not to go for actual joint procurement action for now EARDA: learning phase for change management, stage-1 PCP proposal submitted, but not sure about continuation due to company re-organisation in the near future. VL: good networking partnership; no continuation due to re-organisation; Flemish innovation agency could be right partner; push to address procurement aspects in WG in the EU C-ITS platform (knowledge creating / sharing). Send them final recommendations deliverable. Set up an EU project to work as WG in EU C-ITS Platform (like the EIP European ITS platform, follow-up of EasyWay project, now EIP+ and soon EU-EIP, funded by H2020 and CEF)? NDR: good common understanding achieved on “flexible thinking” about PPI / procurement, hoped to have more legal/procurement expertise in the network learning limited on these aspects; very positive about continuation with another EU project to provide legal advice on flexible framework to allow C-ITS deployment. ITSB: set up training programme / promotion as next step? Agree with VTT & LIST. ITSS / STA: good learning, continuation to be considered depending on focus (procurement vs. ITS). TOPOS/CEREMA: re-organisation after ITS WC might lead to terminate TOPOS, so possible continuation as CEREMA. CEREMA’s continuation in P4ITS depends role in EU-EIP, where CEREMA is partner and on policy level decision. Indeed a national WG will be set up in coming months to define guidelines and create software for public procurers for implementing new French procurement law. VERONA: support VTT proposal, but need to see possibility of follow up due to entity reorganisation. LIGURIA: support VTT proposal, but feasibility depending on legal frameworks developed at national level, which can be a barriers to common approach (depends on policy level decision). ERTICO: challenge as coordinator to elaborate on legal, procurement, ITS aspects, but good value to work with P4ITS network; a different project structure could have facilitated the work and the contributions of each partner (e.g., vertical axes for specific legal, ITS, etc. aspects and horizontal axis to bring everything together; need to seek EU funding opportunities where VTT proposal for continuation could fit in, provided that this coagulates interest of the ERTICO partnership.
