Emily's R&D SOLUTIONS What responsibilities would the Project Management role entail? n Having a suitably qualified person to act as a focal point for managing the project. n Commitment of time to the project. n Acting as a conduit for information, materials and documents from one side to the other. n Record keeping in relation to what has been carried out against the project deliverables and who has disclosed what to whom. n Day to day management of the project including keeping the project on schedule and making decisions in relation to minor changes to the project. n Coordinating meetings for the project. n Referring more major queries for decisions at a higher level within the organisation. What type of research relationship might be appropriate? The idea for the research is really just an extension of Emily's work and not a new idea of NWP. It uses Emily's IP and not NWP's. NWP is interested in the research but it is not a critical for its existence. NWP may be setting the deliverables for the project and wants the work ring-fencing from other work. NWP may be paying FEC but it is not paying a profit element to Lakeland. Using the Lambert Decision Guide the research is clearly not contract research but a sponsored research arrangement. Research and Development Agreement Payment provisions n These seem potentially acceptable. (We shall assume Lakeland has checked it represents FEC). Remember the last payment is dependent on NWP's actions and so it could be a good idea to include an obligation on NWP to progress clinical trials for the product within a timescale. 58
