Is it possible that several project partners from the same country share one first level controller?
Yes, several project partners from the same country can have the same first level controller. There are two options: Each project partner makes its own contract with the first level controller. Partners can also share the first level controller using the method of cost-sharing. Please note that only external first level controllers can be shared. In this case all project partners shall conclude a cost sharing agreement. One project partner (Implementing partner) shall contract the first level controller and pay his invoices. The other project partners shall pay their share to the Implementing partner. Please also note that although the first level controller is contracted by one partner, all project partners have to have a designation certificate for their first level controllers.
