    Connecting the Dots: Efficient Preparation of Last Calls

    Connecting the dots: efficient preparation of last calls 21 – 22 February 2019 Connecting the dots: efficient preparation of last calls Radisson Blu Hotel, Madrid Prado Madrid, Spain Connecting the dots: efficient preparation of last calls 21 – 22 February 2019 Madrid, Spain Outline As Interreg programmes enter the final phase of the programme cycle, the 2019 performance review is an important opportunity to check whether programmes are achieving their planned results in terms of financial absorption and key implementation steps. Gaps in some intervention areas might stand next to overachievement in other fields. This will open a strategic debate in many programmes: How can future calls for proposals contribute to the achievement of programmes’ results? What are key aspects to be considered when planning, preparing and launching last calls? What can be an efficient and effective ways for programmes to use last calls to narrow respectively close the gap between the expected and actually attained outputs? What could be leading aspects when formulating the call requirements such as capitalisation or attracting new groups of applicants or spearheading into new ideas for post-2020 etc.? We would like to discuss all these aspects with you and we will offer, to the extent possible, first-hand experience and insights when it comes to planning last calls. Objectives The core objective of the workshop is the open exchange on experiences, concerns and reflections when considering the preparation of the programme’s last calls. We would like to offer you the opportunity to discuss new approaches and good practices, in order to: prepare your final rounds in an efficient and effective way; and achieve the envisaged targets at priority and programme levels.

Tras el estudio de las ideas y propuestas presentadas en los Concursos, y antes de acometer con profundidad cualquier futura actuación por parte del Ayuntamiento de Madrid en el entorno, se consideraba prioritario y necesario el disponer de una información estructurada y fiable. Para ello, y con el fin de llegar a los objetivos recogidos en el punto anterior, la anterior Dirección General de Planeamiento Urbanístico realizó una serie de trabajos en relación con la manzana de AZCA. Estos trabajos se señalan a continuación: Recogida de información previa. La documentación existente en el Ayuntamiento era manifiestamente insuficiente para poder realizar una diagnosis de la situación de la manzana de AZCA con solvencia, debido a lo siguiente: A) Se carecía de unas bases cartográficas actualizadas y fiables, al menos en las plantas bajas en donde se localiza el espacio público. B) No se disponía de una información de la estructura de la propiedad. C) Tampoco se disponía de una información de los usos actuales, ni de su funcionalidad. D) No se tenía un conocimiento exhaustivo de la seguridad en el área, de su accesibilidad y de su movilidad. Recopilación de información mediante realización de trabajos. Como consecuencia de estas carencias, y para poder formular un diagnóstico con cierta precisión de la situación de AZCA, se debía realizar una serie de trabajos encaminados a proporcionar una mayor información del estado y del funcionamiento de la manzana. Se consideraron necesarios los siguientes trabajos: A) Levantamiento de bases cartográficas fiables para poder identificar con claridad el deterioro real del conjunto edificado en la actualidad.

    INTRODUCTION In these complicated times for both citizens and public administrations, public transport remains a government action priority, perhaps more so than ever before. Despite the demands placed on their budgets, the Catalan Government and local authorities have prioritised the allocation of resources to the ATM to maintain the current levels of quality and service. People’s right to accessibility must be guaranteed and, in order to do so to a satisfactory standard, we must equip ourselves with an effective and efficient public trans- port system, while abiding by the principles of sustainable mobility. Moreover, we must be especially alert to the needs of those people who, for personal or family circumstances, LLUÍS RECODER I MirallES require support from the administration. The commitment to discounted concession tickets Councillor for Territory and Sustain- is a clear example of this and is further demonstrated by the creation of the new ticket for ability and Chairman of the Metro- politan Transport Authority unemployed people, the reduction in the cost of the T-Jove and T-Trimestre cards and the expansion of the T-12 card to include children up to the age of 13. 2011 was a good year for the Barcelona Metropolitan Transport Authority from the point of view of demand. Within the area covered by the Integrated Fare System, a historic high of 935.5 million journeys was reached, 1.4% more than the previous year. The use of public transport has risen across the board, with an increase of 0.6% in bus travel and 1.9% in rail travel.

Está ubicado en el corazón del Paseo de la Castellana y muy cerca de Nuevos Ministerios, uno de los principales núcleos de comunicación de transporte público de la capital. • Varias rehabilitaciones de edificios se han producido en los últimos años para seguir atrayendo a la demanda y como consecuencia de esa renovación del parque de oficinas, algunos de los edificios de AZCA, los que están más cerca del Paseo de la Castellana se han integrado en la zona Prime del Central AZCA Business District madrileño. • La recuperación de los precios de los alquileres de oficinas en AZCA ha sido más rápida que la dinámica general del mercado de Madrid. Eso no es de extrañar debido al atractivo de la zona a lo que hay que sumarle el interés de los propietarios para mantener la calidad de los edificios acorde a la demanda actual de las empresas. • La consolidación de esta zona de oficinas también ha atraído a los operadores de espacios flexibles ya que aquí encuentran dos de las características más importantes a la hora de ubicar sus negocios: excelente comunicaciones de transporte público y una demanda dinámica de espacios de oficinas. • AZCA cuenta además con una destacada zona comercial. La calle Orense junto con El Corte Inglés acogen multitud de operadores de moda. El gigante textil, Zara, abrió en el edificio Castellana 79 una de sus tiendas más grandes del mundo.
