 ! 3790 EurekaBuild European Construction Technology Platform Starting point  Achievements from EurekaBuild 1 in terms of Network Project ideas Projects running  ECTP SRA and IAP EurekaBuild should still be a supplementary instrument to fulfil the objectives of ECTP, and thus a part of the ECTP organisation  The EurekaBuild Action Plan from May 2006 Will still be valid for most items, and can be used as a basis  The new Eureka Umbrella guidelines Need to be implemented in the new action plan  The NTPs network Should still be a backbone for the initiative

 ! 3790 EurekaBuild European Construction Technology Platform Decisions to be made  Chair The Spanish NTP has offered to chair the new EurekaBuild 2 initiative, and provide funding for the chair and support office  Commitment of member states EUREKA member states must decide on their continued commitment to EurekaBuild2 – at least 5 member states will be needed in order to re- launch the Umbrella According to the new Umbrella guidelines a stronger NPC commitment will be needed also regarding financial issues  Secretariat Hosting and running the secretariat and support office – with ECTP, with the Chair or other alternatives  Management and WP structure Overall structure for decision-making and running of the Umbrella Work packages and responsibilities

 ! 3790 EurekaBuild European Construction Technology Platform Actions to be taken  Establish the new structure Define responsibilities Secure the commitment from partners and their NPCs Secure the funding  Prepare the new Work Plan Meeting of new SC, at/with ESE in early 2010 Write and adopt the work plan File the application form  Set up the new secretariat and support office  Define roles and have the new TC and WP leaders up and running
