The objective of the FWC was to provide, via individual assignments defined and contracted through Specific Contracts, short-term expertise which can be mobilised at very short notice. The quality of this expertise was guaranteed by the retained Framework contractors disposing of the appropriate internal resources as well as of access to external technical skills.
Technical assistance may cover any geographic area, within or outside the European Union.
The Specific Terms of Reference, part of each Specific Contract, shall describe accurately and in details the objectives and required outputs of each individual assignment.
