How does it work?

It is not obligatory, but the most effective way is that all project beneficiaries are involved.

Entry of project data by the coordinating beneficiary


Project manager first fills in general project data, actions and the financial part.

After checking and locking in the project, associated beneficiaries will get access for editing their part of the project.


Financial Reports and Gantt Chart

There are numerous possibilities of costs control with financial reports prepared by a single click. Some of them are preset.

Data for preparation of Progress, Mid-Term or Final Reports, for Audit and monitoring visits are accessible by one click.

Gantt Chart is automatically updated.

Each project beneficiary is a unique unit


Each partner manages their own planned project budget and action activities.

Only the coordinating beneficiary will have an insight into associated beneficaries´ action progress and financial expenditures.

Task assignments between partners will be easily tracked


A workplan between project partners will be established and implementation of project tasks will be tracked.

On-line exchange of documents is possible, as well as control over already sent documents to the coordinating beneficiary.

Coordinating beneficiary will have a day-to-day insight
into associated beneficiaries´ work and resources use

Data for different types of EU Progress Reports will be available for the project manager in one place.

Are you interested?

First discuss about this tool with your project beneficiaries. The tool is most efficient if all project partners are using it. If you want to purchase the tool, follow these steps.

Try the tool

First, all project beneficiaries have to watch the video presentation of the tool. If you have any additional questions about the tool, contact us. We can schedule an on-line individual meeting.

If interested, request for a free-of-charge access to the tool. You will be limited to two weeks to try it. Send us your LIFE code and e-mails for access activation (per beneficiary). If you have any additional questions, we will offer you on-line individual support during the testing period.

1st STEP

Decision

Then, project beneficiaries have to discuss and decide who will use this tool. It is most efficient if all project partners are using it (see pricing RECOMMENDED). However, an alternative is also useful. In this case, the tool still has full functionalities, but it does not provide a direct insight over associated beneficiaries that have not joined. The coordinating beneficiary has to insert financial data of associated beneficiaries that are not linked into the system (see pricing ALTERNATIVE).

Nevertheless, this tool can be used individually. This is possible for associated beneficiary, when the coordinating beneficiary does not want to use the tool. In that case, a tool for associated beneficiary still has full management functionalities. It works fully for internal control, but since there is no link to a coordinating beneficiary, on-line insight into project progress, communication between CB and ABs and on-line documentation exchange is not possible (see pricing INDIVIDUAL).

2nd STEP

Purchase

If you decide to purchase the tool, we will first send you an offer and, if approved, we will issue an invoice to all beneficiaries. An invoice with the required LIFE statement will be sent to you by e-mail.

After the payment is received, your access will be re-activated.

License price for the first year also covers an individual on-line guiding and functionalities presentation. The on-line tutorial (once the tool is purchased) is limited to two hours per LIFE project.

3rd STEP

More and more great extra features

A scheduler for project partners and Kanban board for all employees

MGM 4 LIFE

Scheduler

By using the scheduler, all beneficiaries will be directly informed about joint meetings, events, workshops etc.

MGM 4 LIFE

Kanban board

A Kanban board will offer amazing support to project task management. It provides control at two levels. At the first level, a user of the tool will be able to delegate and in a later stage to control the progress of the tasks to internal employees, and at the second level, to associated project beneficiaries.

MGM 4 LIFE

Regular updates

MGM4LIFE tool will be regularly updated according to LIFE regulations and reporting demands. We also encourage you to write to us about possible modification suggestions.

MGM 4 LIFE
