SUBCONTRACTING

PROCUREMENT

Subcontractors participate in the action by carrying out action tasks for the beneficiary,  which could consist for example in the purchase of goods, works or services that are identified as action tasks. On the other hand, suppliers of goods, works or services do  not implement action tasks themselves, but only make resources available to the beneficiary. 

PROCUREMENT

The ceiling of EUR 60 000  does not apply to sub-contractors. This threshold applies to financial support to third parties / IPs (which broadly refers to ‘sub-granting’). (See FAQs on Implementing Partners).

Implementing partners can also sub-contract and purchase, as long as they do so under the same conditions as the beneficiary.

Sub-contractors or suppliers can also sub-contract as long as this is in line with the contractual arrangement between the beneficiary and the sub-contractor or supplier.
