A. Short status report

Please provide a summary of the activities performed during the reporting period.
Please try to follow these guidelines:
 Be concise
 Avoid a report that is too structured (like reporting by each WP)
 Do not keep reporting past issues by adding new things to old ones which are
not relevant anymore for the time span covered in the report
 Consider the Monthly Progress Report as a tool not only to keep ESA
informed, but the whole project team
 Be systematic; provide the Monthly Progress Report on time, and not only
during the first months. Suggestion: put a repeating monthly entry into the
electronic calendar of the person responsible for producing the monthly report.
 Include a fixed calendar date when the next project milestone is going to take
place

Possible example:
Following the Baseline Design Review (BDR), which took place in the headquarters
of the company XXX on 12 March 2020, the Requirement Document has been
finalised taking into account the Actions agreed at the BDR meeting.
The hardware design activities have started with the initial selection of the
Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) components required for the development of the
user terminal. The CPU selected is XXX and it has been verified that it will be

available for purchase for a period of 5 years.


The Business Plan has been reviewed by an external consultant which led us to re-
evaluate upwards the number of man hours and costs needed for the installation of
each unit. This will be balanced by an increased installation charge for the customer.
The Critical Design Review meeting (CDR) is planned to take place at the premises
of ZZZ on 18 August 2020.

Please indicate here any problem areas that you encountered or that you are

Applications, where a presentation of the project was delivered. A follow-up meeting
took place with a potential customer organisation based in Ireland, which expressed
a potential interest for 20 systems. The web site of the product has been revised,
which offers now a video demonstrating the concept of the product AAAA. In the last
month according our web stats package this video has been clicked on 1500 times..
The product brochure has been finalised and a first batch of 150 prints have been
produced.

where the service will be presented in the stand co-hosted with the company CCC.
