# PQC Integration — KPI Dashboard
|
|
|
|
**Proposal:** €2.8M HORIZON-CL3-2025-CS-ECCC-06
|
|
**Version:** 1.0
|
|
**Date:** 2025-11-06
|
|
**Owner:** VaultMesh Technologies B.V. (Coordinator)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
This dashboard defines **quantitative** and **qualitative** Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) aligned with Horizon Europe evaluation criteria (Excellence 30%, Impact 30%, Implementation 40%).
|
|
|
|
**Measurement approach:**
|
|
- **Baseline:** Current state (TRL 4, existing VaultMesh node)
|
|
- **Target:** End of project (M24, TRL 6)
|
|
- **Verification:** How we prove the target was achieved
|
|
- **Frequency:** How often we measure during project
|
|

## Reviewer Notes
|
|
|
|
**For Part B Section 2.1 (Pathways to Impact):**
|
|
> "The project defines 18 quantitative KPIs across Excellence, Impact, and Implementation dimensions. Key targets include: TRL 4→6 progression validated by external audit; 10+ top-tier publications; 5+ standards contributions; 30% audit cost reduction in pilots; 50% faster incident detection; 500+ open-source downloads post-project; 15+ federation nodes across 3 countries; 100% deliverable on-time completion; ≤10% budget variance. Monthly KPI tracking via consortium portal ensures proactive management and timely course corrections."
|
|
|
|
**For reviewers evaluating Impact (30% of score):**
|
|
- Shows **concrete, measurable outcomes** (not vague "we will contribute to...")
|
|
- Demonstrates **realistic targets** (30% cost reduction, not 90%)
|
|
- Proves **systematic measurement plan** (verification methods specified)
|
|
- Indicates **impact beyond project** (open-source downloads post-M24)
