Public institutions that need solutions based on R&D and undertake the implementation of the project results are included in the program as "Customer Institution". Project preparation and project execution, skills, experience and infrastructure; The public R&D unit, university and/or private institution where the project is carried out are included in the program as the "Project Executive Organization".
The projects to be supported can be of three different qualities according to their outputs:
- Prototype/System/Pilot Facility Project: Projects with the potential of commercialization as well as meeting the needs of the customer institution, whose output is a prototype, system or pilot facility, where the needs of the customer institution are met by reproducing the prototype, using the system directly or by reproducing, or converting the pilot facility into a large facility.
- Model/Method/Process Project: Projects whose output is a model, method or process, where the needs of the customer institution are met by the direct use of these outputs, and the commercialization potential is not a priority.
- Technology Knowledge Project: Projects aimed at gaining technological knowledge, where the output cannot be used directly on an industrial scale, for the purpose of gaining the competence to produce products that do not have a technological potential for domestic production.
The Customer Institution submits the Project Results Implementation Plan (PSUP), which it undertakes to use the outputs of the projects supported under the 1007 Program, to TÜBİTAK. According to this plan, TÜBİTAK monitors the transfer of the project results to the application by the customer institution. In technology knowledge projects, Technology Acquisition Roadmap (TKYH) is prepared by the project coordinator organizations instead of PSUP, and the technology development process is followed in line with this roadmap.
PROJECT DURATION
The maximum support period for a project in 1007 program is 48 months.
CALL BUDGET
