Repair Options
When financing instrumentation as part of a project funding, the 快三砍龙 assumes that the institution in which the 快三砍龙 instrumentation is installed and used will cover the usual maintenance costs. The expenses to be borne by the institution include maintenance and repairs resulting from age and wear-and-tear, as well as measures to maintain the operational readiness of the instrumentation and utensils concerned. The institution is liable for any fault.
Repair from Existing Project Funds
If specific repairs are required within a 快三砍龙 project for 快三砍龙-funded instrumentation, these expenses can be covered from the funds approved for the project without requiring separate approval on the part of the 快三砍龙.听
Application for Repair
If it is not possible to cover project-related repairs from the institution鈥檚 own funds or from funds granted by the 快三砍龙, the 快三砍龙 may provide additional funds for the repair on request before any repair contract is awarded, providing the instrumentation was fully financed in connection with funding granted to an individual. Partially funded major research instrumentation are therefore excluded from this funding.
Financing of instrumentation repairs is only available for instrumentation that has been fully financed by the 快三砍龙 as part of funding granted to an individual and only if the repair goes beyond the scope of normal maintenance. The 快三砍龙 has decided to make repair options independent of ownership: for this reason, pieces of equipment on loan from the 快三砍龙 are no longer the only items of instrumentation for which repairs can be financed from the 快三砍龙 repair fund. However, 快三砍龙 repair funding is not available for instrumentation that was only partially financed from 快三砍龙 funds or not at all.
For this purpose,聽快三砍龙 form 22.3(interner Link)聽is to be fully completed and sent to聽reparatur@dfg.d(externer Link). A quotation for the repair must be enclosed for the request to be considered; cost estimates are not sufficient. Repair costs will only be covered by the 快三砍龙 if the repair is commissioned after the 快三砍龙's decision on the proposal.
Further Information
Here, you will find a description of which聽funding programme(interner Link)聽involve funding being awarded to an individual (not all of these programmes include funding for instrumentation, however).
Repair requests may not be submitted in connection with 快三砍龙 instrumentation financed as part of 快三砍龙 funding awarded to an institution, usually to a university for a network or consortium: in this case, it is assumed that the universities concerned are able to take on financial responsibility for financing repairs 鈥 whether from the funds of the institutions themselves or network funds.听
