Preparing a competitive grant application is a multi-stage process that requires expert knowledge of European Commission requirements, understanding of the specific programme's priorities and the ability to present your project convincingly. The average approval rate in Horizon Europe programmes is only 15–17%, and in some calls — less than 10%. Our task is to make your application stand out.
We develop all key components of the application: technical project description (Part B), work package and task structure, detailed budget and financial plan, impact and sustainability assessment, communication and dissemination strategy, data management plan and ethics section. Each element is developed in accordance with the EU expert evaluation methodology.
We pay particular attention to the "Impact" section — assessing the project's economic, social and environmental effects. This section often determines an application's fate: when technical scores are equal, the project with a more convincing description of expected results wins. We help quantify every claim and build a logical chain from project tasks to scalable outcomes.
The preparation process includes three rounds of internal review and expert evaluation. We simulate the European Commission's review procedure, identify weak points in the application and eliminate them before submission. The final version undergoes a check for completeness, compliance with call requirements and formal admissibility criteria.
Our approach to grant application preparation combines deep expertise in EU requirements with individual attention to each project. We take on the full application development cycle, ensuring its maximum competitiveness and compliance with all programme funding criteria.
We develop a complete technical project description in accordance with the programme template.
We create a justified project budget with details by work packages and partners.
We justify the economic, social and environmental impact of the project.
We structure the project into logical work packages with tasks and milestones.
We develop a dissemination plan and communication strategy for the target audience.
We conduct three cycles of internal expert review and refinement before submission.
We recommend starting with a project readiness analysis. Our experts will assess your business's alignment with grant programme requirements and help determine the optimal application strategy to maximise your chances of success.
We offer a full cycle of services: from initial readiness analysis and programme selection to application writing, project management and post-grant support. Each service is tailored to the specific needs of your project.
Calls for major EU programmes such as Horizon Europe, LIFE and Erasmus+ open regularly — typically several times a year. We continuously monitor over 50 programmes and notify our clients about relevant opportunities.
We conduct a comprehensive risk assessment during the application preparation stage and develop a mitigation plan. During project implementation, we monitor key risks and promptly propose corrective actions.
EU grants are available to a wide range of organisations: from small and medium-sized enterprises to large corporations, research institutes, universities and non-profit organisations. The key requirement is alignment of the project with the priorities of the selected programme.
A successful audit begins with proper documentation from day one of the project. We ensure correct processing of all expenditures, conduct a preliminary internal audit and prepare a complete package of supporting documents.
