## 4.1.0. Objectives & Pricing 

This work package covers the activities needed to ensure the overall governance and contract management of the FWC666. It mainly relates to the management of the FWC666 contractors' activities, their internal teams’  organisation and the coordination with ECHA. This work package also covers the management of all administrative procedures related to the procurement, accounting and invoicing of all services covered by the FWC666. 

For the sake of clarity: 

• ECHA expects that general tasks for governance and contract management to be carried by all contractors, (e.g. account management and horizontal activities at FWC level such as participating in general or ad hoc governance meeting, contracting, basic reporting etc.) and which shall be at no extra cost for ECHA. 

• Specific tasks (i.e. activities covered by this work package and linked to the services rendered under a specific contract) will be contracted with the respective contractor as required (with Fixed price or Quoted Time and Means as preferred contracting mode). 

## 4.1.1. Governance (WP 1.1) 

The contractor must ensure that their organisational structure allows a proper interaction with ECHA and must specify and put in place an interaction model as specified below. 

The contractor must nominate a number of Single Points of Contact (SPOCs) for coordinating effort and activities with the SPOCs nominated by the Contracting Authority. 

The contractor must coordinate efforts with ECHA on regular (monthly) and on ad-hoc basis. Also, the contractor must prepare, hold and minute meetings with the Contracting Authority. 

The general availability of the contractor for this coordination must be as follows: 

• Bilateral monthly meetings  (BMM), planned in advance 

• BMM follow-up meeting usually the day after the BMM to handle all escalations raised
