Question details
Does Envelope #1 (admin. documents, ...) in case of a consortium require original signatures?
In the case of a consortium, is it needed for all partners to provide the original copies of their annex 6, power of attorney, or is a signed pdf enough? Does the power of attorney document need to come with all signatures in one page? Or can each consortium member sign their own digital version and put everything together with the right references? In case the answer is yes to both, how would the Agency suggest that this document is passed around several different international partners in order to obtain the relevant signatures in one physical page?
01/02/2016
Documents need to be original. All consortium members should sign the same power of attorney. In case of very large consortia, members can provide individual letters of attorney, but Annex 6 template cannot be altered. Please just add "not applicable" in the corresponding places.
