The result of Lot 2 should be that EIGE has in-depth and complete knowledge on how EIGE’s outputs are used by academia the importance of EIGE’s research outputs to the academic process and how this importance evolves over time. While it is practically impossible to collect all citations to EIGE from any academic process, as a minimum this service should cover the international peer-reviewed academic journals. In their offer, the contractor is invited to expand the minimum coverage and propose a larger/more segmented coverage. The contractor will be expected to deliver quarterly and ad hoc monitoring reports, which will have a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the citations.
