Commissioned research/study
Researchers may also be in contact with social actors, such as local authorities, interest groups, museums, etc., with the possibility of research or consultancy agreements (i.e. revenue-funded activities with agreements of a consultancy-like character, such as development, evaluation, competency development, etc.).
Finance and budget
It is common for this type of projects not to have a specific set of rules for types of expenses to be covered and which prices to be accepted. The finances of the individual projects are to be negotiated specifically. In the event of revenue-funded activities, i.e. consultancy-like work, legislation stipulates that universities must not underbid the market. This type of project doesn’t operate with overhead since indirect expenses are included in the “high” hourly wage rate. Thus, overhead isn’t charged from the project’s operating expenses; they are settled at cost.
