Abstract:
Nowadays, more and more principles of Quality Management are applied in implementing and evaluating a project. For the European Community co-financed projects, quality indicators are set out for all processes and quality principles are spread within the project, from elaborating project proposal to actual implementation, evaluation and dissemination of the project. All project activities can be organized by the Total Quality Management principles, but the activity that can actually challenge the implementation of such principles to a project level is dissemination, mostly because of its “larger horizon”. Dissemination begins once with the project and it virtually never ends. A procedure can be developed, at transport projects level for better dissemination based on the experience gained in disseminating CIVITAS SUCCESS Project.
