Structure of the Area of Evaluation of RDI

Structure of the Area of Evaluation of RDI
The Area of Evaluation of Research, Development and Innovation of the DEVA is
formed by the Director of Evaluation and Accreditation, the manager of the Area of
Evaluation of RDI, the Scientific-Technical Area Committees and technical specialists.
The area manager coordinates the evaluation of the research, development and
innovation activities carried out by the DEVA, and, within its competences, it is also
responsible for advising and collaborating with the Director of Evaluation and
Accreditation. A total of 15 renowned scientists collaborate with these tasks, forming
the Technical Committee for Evaluation and Accreditation.
There are 16 Area Committees covering the 9 Scientific and Technical Areas of the
PAIDI (Andalusian Plan of Research, Development and Innovation) through which the
Andalusian System of Knowledge is articulated. Some of these Areas include two or
three Committees due to the largeness of the thematic areas within them.

Each Committee is formed by a coordinator, who is a scientist based in an Andalusian
research centre (university, CSIC, hospital, etc.), and a number of collaborators,
between 4 and 18 depending on the incentive to be evaluated. These collaborators are
renowned scientists based in research centres outside Andalusia. The appointment of
coordinators and collaborators is for a set period of 4 years.
The coordinator nominates the members of his/her team taking into account their
experience and knowledge in the area of the applications to be evaluated, and is
responsible for the coordination of the evaluation process. The collaborators have to
meet the requirement of having at least two six-year research periods acknowledged
(productivity bonuses). Their function is to manage a number of incentives, between 8
and 12. The management tasks include the selection of external evaluators, the
evaluation of the assigned incentives itself, and the elaboration of the respective reports.
The applications are prioritised at a Committee meeting in the DEVA headquarters.
