The Central Division "Research Management" of TÜV Akademie Rheinland specialises in supporting public authorities in the field of scientific-technical and administrative project management, primarily in research and development (R&D). One of the aims is to advise public authorities in the evaluation and selection of projects to be funded and to provide technical and administrative support in the execution of these projects. At the same time, the objectives and responsibilities also include facilitating the access of industry and science to public funding programmes. The division's expertise is based on more than 30 years of cooperation with the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) as a project management organisation in the field of transport research, and more than 10 years of work as the National Contact Point for transport-related research programmes of the EU. In addition, we support the BMBF in the R&D programme "Building and Housing", and also the Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Housing (BMVBW) in the research programme "Urban Traffic" (FOPS).
