<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Unfortunately, our proposal has not been successful. The aspect of the evaluation we failed was Quality and Efficiency of the Implementation. If you look at the text, it is actually not too bad, but they marked us under
the threshold. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">There were 76 submissions for six possible project, so it was always going to be very competitive.
