Enterprise: Organisation producing products or services to satisfy market needs in order to reach profit. The legal form of enterprise may be various (self-employed persons, partnerships, etc.)." "Note that indicators CO01 to CO05 measure the number of the enterprises and multiple counting needs to be eliminated (i.e. an enterprise receiving grants more than once is still only one enterprise receiving grants). Registering a unique identifier for each enterprise to avoid multiple counting is a good practice. Note that the sum of indicators 2, 3 and 4 may be higher than indicator 1 if enterprises may receive different types of support or combined support. This indicator should be used together with indicators 28 and 29 for innovation in enterprises. The indicator is also needed when support is given for energy efficiency measures in enterprises."

The created enterprise did not exist three years before the project started but the Managing Authority or national legislation may set lower the time criterion. An enterprise will not become new if only its legal form changes. Subset of 'Number of enterprises receiving support'" This indicator should be used for both enterprise development and innovation measures if the goal is to create or support new enterprises (e.g. spin-offs, technology start-ups).

Productive investment Productive investment ERDF CO08 FIRMS: New direct jobs FTE Employment increase in supported enterprises "Gross new working positions in supported enterprises in full time equivalents (FTE). Essentially a 'before-after' indicator which captures the part of the employment increase that is direct consequence of project completion (workers employed to implement the project are not counted). The positions needs to be filled (vacant posts are not counted) and increase the total number of jobs in the enterprise. If total employment in the enterprise does not increase, the value is zero – it is regarded as realignment, not increase. Safeguarded etc. jobs are not included. Gross: Not counting the origin of the jobholder as long as it directly contributes to the increase of total jobs in the organisation. The indicator should be used if the employment increase can plausibly be attributed to the support. Full-time equivalent: Jobs can be full time, part time or seasonal. Seasonal and part time jobs are to be converted to FTE using ILO/statistical/other standards. Durability: Jobs are expected to be permanent, i.e. last for a reasonably long period depending on industrial-technological characteristics; seasonal jobs should be recurring. Figures of enterprises that went bankrupt are registered as a zero employment increase. Timing: Data is collected before the project starts and after it finishes; Managing Authorities are free to specify the exact timing. Using average employment, based on 6 months or a year, is preferred to employment figures on certain dates." Productive investment Productive investment ERDF CO09 Tourism: New visitors Visits/year Increase in expected number of visits to supported sites of cultural or natural heritage and attractions The ex ante estimated increase in number of visits to a site in the year following project completion. Valid for site improvements that aim to attract and accept visitors for sustainable tourism. Includes sites with or without previous tourism activity (e.g. nature parks or buildings converted to museum). One visitor can make multiple visits; a group of visitors count as many visits as many members the group has. The Managing Authorities set the methodology for estimating the expected number that can be based on demand analysis.

This can include electrification, developing single track railroad into double track, increasing the possible speed on the track, or any combination of these, but excludes installation of signalling systems (incl. ensuring ERTMS (European Rail Traffic Management System) compatibility). The approach chosen here is to exclude signalling systems as they distort the values. Signalling systems should be treated in a separate (programme-specific) indicator."

The operations can be carried out both in or outside of Natura 2000 areas, capable of improving the conservation status of targeted species, habitats or ecosystems for biodiversity and the provisioning of ecosystem-services. Areas that receive support repeatedly should be counted only once. Environment Environment ERDF CO24 RTDI: New researchers FTE Number of new researchers in supported entities "Gross new working positions (that did not exist before) to directly perform R&D activities, in full time equivalents. The post must be a consequence of project implementation or completion, be filled (vacant posts are not counted) and increase the total number of research jobs in the organisation. Support staff for R&D (i.e. jobs not directly involved in R&D activities) is not counted. The indicator focuses on employed personnel; the supported entity may be new or already existing. Gross: Not counting the origin of the jobholder as long as it directly contributes to the increase of total research jobs in the organisation. Full-time equivalent: Jobs can be full time, part time or seasonal. Seasonal and part time jobs are to be converted to FTE using ILO/statistical/other standards. In the field of RTD the duration of jobs tends to be shorter (“project support”). The jobs created for different projects should be added up (provided that all projects receive support); this is not regarded as multiple counting." Research infrastructure is a term used to designate a very heterogeneous group of tangible or intangible assets thus cannot be captured by a limited number of physical indicators. The approach chosen here is to focus on a non-financial dimension of the investment (employment) that is still able to reflect the scale of intervention. Research and Innovation Research and Innovation ERDF CO25 RTDI: Researchers with improved infra FTE Number of researchers working in improved research infrastructure facilities "Existing working positions in research infrastructure facilities that (1) directly perform R&D activities and (2) are directly affected by the project. The posts must be filled (vacant posts are not counted). Support staff for R&D (i.e. jobs not directly involved in R&D activities) is not counted. If more researchers will be employed in the facilities as a consequence of the project, thus the numbers of research jobs increases, the new posts are included (see also “Number of new researchers in supported entities”). The facilities may be private or public. The project must improve the facilities or quality of equipment, i.e. maintenance or replacement without quality increase is excluded. Full-time equivalent: Jobs can be full time, part time or seasonal. Seasonal and part time jobs are to be converted to FTE using ILO/statistical/other standards." Research and Innovation Research and Innovation ERDF CO26 RTDI: Firms working with Ris enterprises Number of enterprises cooperating with research institutions "Number of enterprises that cooperate with research institutions in R&D projects. At least one enterprise and one research institution participates in the project. One or more of the cooperating parties (research institution or enterprise) may receive the support but it must be conditional to the cooperation. The cooperation may be new or existing. The cooperation should last at least for the duration of the project. Enterprise: Organisation producing products or services to satisfy market needs in order to reach profit. The origin of the enterprise (inside or outside of the EU) does not matter. In case one enterprise takes the formal lead and others are subcontractors but still interacting with the research institution, all enterprises should be counted. Enterprises cooperating in different projects should be added up (provided that all projects receive support); this is not regarded as multiple counting. Research institution: an organisation of which R&D is a primary activity." Cooperation can be counted based on either the operations or the participants. This indicator focuses on the enterprises as participants.

Includes process innovation as long as the process contributes to the development of the product. Projects without the aim of actually developing a product are excluded. If an enterprise introduces several products or receives support for several projects, it is still counted as one enterprise. In case of cooperation projects, the indicator measures all participating enterprises. A product is new to the market if there is no other product available on a market that offers the same functionality, or the technology that the new product uses is fundamentally different from the technology of already existing products. Products can be tangible or intangible (incl. services). Supported projects that aimed to introduce new to the markets products but did not succeed are still counted. If a product is new both to the market and to the firm, the enterprise should be counted in both relevant indicators (see indicator 29 ‘Number of enterprises supported to introduce new to the firm products’). The boundaries of the market (either geographical or other) are defined by the Managing Authority based on the business activity of the enterprise receiving support." "Indicator 1 should also be used where this indicator is used. Please note the relation with indicator 29 'Number of enterprises that introduced new to the firm product'.

In line with the deadlines set in the Directive, the indicator must apply to all public buildings above 500m2 total useful area and were reconstructed using Structural Funds support. If the construction starts after 9 July 2015, the threshold for public buildings decreases to 250m2 total useful area. The Managing Authority may include buildings in the calculation with less than 250m2 (or 500m2 before 9/7/2015).

Energy and Climate Change Energy saving ERDF CF CO34 Decrease of GHG tons of CO2 equivalent Estimated annual decrease of GHG "This indicator is calculated for interventions directly aiming to increase renewable energy production (see indicator 30) or to decrease energy consumption through energy saving measures (see indicators 31 and 32), thus its use is mandatory only where these indicators are relevant. Uses for other interventions with possible GHG impact are optional with methodology developed by the Managing Authority. The indicator will show the total estimated of annual decrease by the end of the period, not the total decrease throughout the period. In case of renewable energy production, the estimate is based on the amount of primary energy produced by supported facilities in a given year (either one year following project completion or the calendar year after project completion). Renewable energy is supposed to be GHG neutral and replacing non-renewable energy production. GHG impact of non-renewable energy is estimated through the MS total GHG emission per unit of non-renewable energy production. In case of energy saving measures, the estimate is based on the amount of primary energy saved through in a given year supported operations (either one year following project completion or the calendar year after project completion). Saved energy is supposed to be replacing non-renewable energy production.

It includes new or improved buildings, or new equipment for various type of health service (prevention, outpatient or inpatient care, aftercare). The indicator excludes multiple counting even if the intervention benefits more services targeting the same persons: one person still counts as one even if that person will use several services which were supported by Structural Funds. For example, an aftercare facility is developed in a city with a population of 100,000 inhabitants. It will serve half the city’s population, thus the indicator value will increase by 50,000. If later a prevention service is developed in the same city that will serve the whole population, the indicator value will increase by another 50,000."
