Key electronic components

Open EU call topic EDF-EDIP-P-2027-LS-IRA-KEC · EDF Lump Sum Grants. Part of call EDF-EDIP-P-2027-LS-IRA: 2nd call for proposals for industrial reinforcement actions under the Programme. Next deadline 2027-02-16. Topic page: https://ec.europa.eu/info/funding-tenders/opportunities/portal/screen/opportunities/topic-details/EDF-EDIP-P-2027-LS-IRA-KEC

Expected Impact: Projects are expected to deliver results aligned with the expected results set out in this call topic and to evidence their contribution through dedicated KPIs defined in the proposal. Expected results include: • tangible capacity increases in EU-based production of the targeted electronic components, with demonstrated contribution to competitiveness; • improved resilience & geographical distribution of supply, reducing single points of failure; • strengthened availability and security of supply for priority defence product production lines, commensurate with identified risks and exposure to the risk of • materialisation of conventional military threats; • and measurable lead-time reductions, establishment or availability of reserved capacity where applicable, and workforce trained to operate and sustain the reinforced production lines. Proposals shall define, baseline and track KPIs such as added throughput (units/month), time-to-rate, lead-time reduction, yield/quality improvements, qualified output delivered, reserved capacity parameters, and numbers of staff trained, alongside indicators evidencing risk mitigation (e.g., supply-chain robustness and obsolescence management outcomes). Where implemented, the physical and cyber protection WP is expected to deliver measurable improvements in site and production security, evidenced through threat assessment protected sites to support the security measures and KPIs (e.g., coverage of protected areas/assets, detection/alert performance, response readiness, critical vulnerabilities mitigated). Those KPIs shall be linked to the project’s overall risk register…
