Organisational structure and decision-making mechanisms. The PERFORM project will be coordinated by the Internet Interdisciplinary Institute (IN3) based at the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC), and specifically conducted by the research group of the Urban Transformation and Global Change Laboratory. Both IN3 and UOC have a strong background in participating and leading European and international projects in the framework of the main EU funding programmes (i.e., FP7, Horizon2020, among others). Scientific and operative decision-making will be organised around three main bodies: the General Assembly, the Steering Committee and the Coordination team (Figure 3.2a). The General Assembly (GA) will be composed by one key person from each institution participating in the project and will ensure the sound achievement of the project objectives under the supervision of the CT. The GA will have to provide co-coordination of the research and technical work within the WPs, to ensure that the tasks in the Work Plan are achieved as expected, both in terms of quality and time. The GA will be responsible for all major decisions regarding the PERFORM, modifications and amendments to the work plan, budget allocation in accordance with the original contract, and changes to the consortium composition, if any. The GA will act under the leadership of the CT. Each partner will appoint one key person to attend the meetings that will be held every 18 months, and he/she will be authorized to make decisions and recommendations on behalf of the institution. The CT will inform the GA about time and cost irregularities if they appear. The Steering Committee (SC) will be composed by each work package leader. The SC will be responsible for coordinating and reporting all activities within their designated work packages, ensuring the delivery and the quality of all deliverables, integrating work and deliverables within the work packages and for maintaining a sound communication among its members. The SC will assemble regularly every 6 months either within the scope of the consortium meetings or through video conferences. The SC will be chaired by the CT. Each member of the SC will report on the activities, progress and, if relevant, problems within the respective work packages. A project factsheet (including planning, project progress, results, estimation of costs made) will be sent every 6 months to the CT. The SC will also work in coordination with the Case Study Coordinators (CSC, see below) in order to ensure a fluent communication betwee...
