RI framework development – refining the process
• Examples of other initiatives/projects aimed at developing common framework for RIs
• InRoad project - two-day interactive workshop and discussions
• G7 GSO global roadmap - extensive testing, dialogue between delegates and RIs, TCs, wording for framework extensively discussed in meetings
• OECD SEIRI – RI’s could give written input on the framework questions, workshops with breakouts, written comments on final suggestions

Final thoughts
• Communicate clearly the purpose and the expected outcomes
• Consider the timing of any reviews or submissions
• Monitoring should utilize existing processes and materials
• Utilize subject experts from ESFRI and each RI
• Communicate the format of the review

Questions to address
• How to do it without generate extra working load to RIs?
• How to define a way to use the internal RIs evaluations run by the owners of the RI in the periodical update (confidentiality)?
• How to introduce the update in the culture of the RIs as part of their planning?
• How to define and use KPI?
• Differences in the approach depending on the type of RI, thematic and single site vs distributed
• How to take into account in the methodology the different position of the landmark lifecycle
