3 Executive summary
In line with the Galileo Exploitation Delegation Agreement and the associated Programme Management Plan, this document provides the 2020 version of Galileo Exploitation annual acquisition plan, multi-annual implementation plan and LTP with the addition of new or modified activities submitted for approval:
• The 2020 – mid-2021 multi-annual acquisition plan and the Long Term Plan summary are submitted for review;
• The 2020 Acquisition Plan and the 2020 Grant Plan are submitted for approval. This version of the document is implementing the comments and requests for clarification received from EC in the preliminary meetings held in November 2019.
It is worth noting in particular that this document is based on the most updated estimations of the planned activities up to mid-2021, resulting from a thorough revision and optimisation of the budget. The following key assumptions were taken:
• Potential budgetary reduction impact of BREXIT was NOT taken into account;
• At present, funds covering GTS activities have NOT been formally delegated yet: these include GSA and ESA activities and ESA remuneration increase;
The RLSP contract has NOT been transferred to GSA yet, as well as the related funds, ref. GEX.0407;
• Potential budgetary impacts deriving from the FOC roadmap activities and implementation of actions from the IRB and IB of the July incident have NOT been taken into account given their low level of maturity.
The EC-GSA DA ceiling of 2.81B € is currently exceeded by around 78M € with a global level of MR (GSA+ESA) being kept at 109.3M € (42.6+66.7) to cover until 21Q2. In particular this includes only the MR for which the GSA exercises its autonomy (50%) to 21Q2.
Ad-hoc approval requests being sent to EC and not yet replied to are nevertheless listed in table 4.

It should be finally noted that the GSA is separately supporting work to align its planning with the overall E-GNSS LTP (EC+GSA+ESA) which is always in progress: difficulties remains given that the timing and final volume of the next GAL DA amendment, expected in 2020, is not yet defined. GSA is ready to discuss and support further re-prioritisation of the budget in the frame of this overall global LTP exercise (EC+GSA+ESA).
The GSA is requesting EC approval at its earliest convenience confirming for which new actions the Commission shall exercise its two weeks right of scrutiny so that the planning can be further consolidated.

4 Budget implementation plan and long term plan summary (19Q4 to 21Q2)
The Long Term Plan summary is submitted for review to the Commission, alongside the detailed 19Q4 to 21Q2 Multi Annual Acquisition Plan (MAAP). The MAAP can be found in Annex A.1 which should be analysed alongside the database of the whole budget planning.
The following assumptions were taken into consideration for the development of this document:
The potential impact of BREXIT was NOT taken into account;
At present, funds covering GTS activities have NOT been formally delegated yet: these includes GSA and ESA activities and ESA remuneration increase;
Potential budgetary impacts deriving from the FOC roadmap implementation have NOT been taken into account given their low level of maturity;
Implementation costs of IB and IRB recommendations of the 2019 July incident have NOT been taken into account given the low level of maturity and or absence of industrial proposals;
At the time of writing the WP2X WO3 estimates reflect GSA assessment based on the information available, in particular concerning the phasing of the activities and other possible impacts on GRON v2 scope: 50M€ including ESA MR (GEX.WA.0130.SC2.Stage3.WO3.CCN + GEX.WA.0130.SC2.Stage3.WO3.CCN.BIS);
The RLSP contract has NOT been transferred to GSA yet as well as the related funds, ref. GEX.0407;
CA beyond mid-2021 is filtered out, i.e. all the activities listed below cover exclusively the current MFF: some activities were nevertheless included under “2021+” label to emphasize the need to find a proper legal mechanism considering that they will need to be contracted before 2021 even though their implementation will start beyond this date;
The excess of the total currently delegated budget is included in a notional activity (EC.0000) for a corresponding negative amount which is created and included in WP 08.9: it only indicates the need to find a proper budget convergence solution, after careful analysis, to contain the total Budget at Completion (BaC) within the budget delegated. This has been included for tracking purposes and it does not mean that the budget convergence solution will be detrimental to any specific work package;
The approach for the continuation of REDU site vs its replacement is described in a dedicated technical note including cost benefit analyses, ref. GEX.0400.

Additional FTE needed locally at GSA HQ and GSMC to support growing Risk Analysis and other PRS User Segment test activities
The need for more support in the field of Risk analysis is growing and there is a need to have more support locally at Prague / St Germain. There is a need for 2 FTE on Risk Analysis (GSA HQ or GSMC) and 1 FTE for supporting operations with PRS equipment: Test Vectors, JTAs, demonstrations, awareness and PRS User Segment testing activities at GSA HQ. To ensure the coverage of RA for the highest priorities, the User Segment RA shall be supported by at least 2 FTEs (currently it is only 1 FTE thanks to agreement with GSMC), to fulfil need of all high priority RA tasks in upcoming year 5 FTEs should be authorised. The priorities, number of tasks and deadlines will be adjusted according to authorisation. To avoid delays, GSA recommendation is authorisation of additional 5 FTEs.

GSF Spares Stock Replenishment/Classified Destruction
GSF replenishment of spares stock & consumables Since the delivered equipment of classified equipment cannot be sanitized and thus not repaired, an initial stock was provided initially by WP2. When a hardware is faulty a good equipment from spare needs to be used. However replenishment of the stock is foreseen for GSMC neither in WP2X nor in GSOP contracts. The line is requested to be able to purchase equipment quickly when it will become needed. The budget would have to be 'replenished' as well depending on actual failure rates and thus replacement of parts.

8 Galileo Exploitation 2020 Grant Plan
The 2020 Grant plan with detailed description will be published on GSA website upon EC review and approval.
The list of Galileo grants currently foreseen in 2020 is reported below.
8.1 GRC Support from Member States (GEX.0102)
LEGAL BASIS
Regulation (EU) No 1285/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 on the implementation and exploitation of European satellite navigation systems and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 876/2002 and Regulation (EC) No 683/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Delegation Agreement between the European Union, represented by the European Commission and the European GNSS Agency on the Exploitation Phase of the Galileo Programme signed on 2 October 2014.
2nd Specific Grant – 12 months extension
BUDGET LINE:
GEX.0102
BACKGROUND:
The primary mission of the Galileo Reference Centre (hereafter “GRC”) is to perform independent monitoring of the Galileo Open Service (hereinafter “OS”) and Commercial Services (hereinafter “CS”) data dissemination performance and report it to the relevant stakeholders. It provides the European GNSS Agency (hereinafter “GSA”), as the service provider, with an independent means of evaluating the quality of the signals in space and the performance of the Galileo Service Operator (hereinafter ‘GSOp’). It is fully independent of the system and the GSOp with respect to both the technical solution (hardware/software, reference products, etc.) and operations.
The GRC’s mission includes the following activities:
o Perform independent monitoring and assessment of OS service provision; o Perform independent monitoring and assessment of CS data dissemination; o Integrate data and products from European Union Member States (hereinafter “MS”), as well as
third countries such as Norway and Switzerland participating in the Galileo programme (hereinafter jointly with “EU MS” referred to as “MS”), with core GRC products and utilise their relevant expertise;
o Report service performance to the programme;
Page 26 of 32
2020 Galileo annual acquisition and grants plan
GSA-GAL-PM-MGT-A02998
Issue/version: 1.0
o Provide service performance expertise to the Programme, including (but not limited to) supporting the Galileo Service Centre (hereinafter “GSC”) on performance-related user requests;
o Support investigations of service performance and service degradations; o Archive relevant service performance data over the nominal operational lifetime of the system; and o When feasible, assess the compatibility and interoperability between Galileo and other GNSS.
The GRC comprises a core facility, located in Noordwijk, the Netherlands, and integrates data and products from cooperating entities from MS. Although the GRC core will have stand-alone capability to fulfil the main mission with a minimum required level of performance, achieving full performance and capabilities relies on integration of the MS contributions. These may support everyday operations (e.g. data provided by MS from additional networks, MS generated reference and monitoring products) and specific campaigns (e.g. utilisation of large gain antennas operated by MS, expertise available at MS level). To formalize such contribution and support the GSA established two long-term cooperation agreements with the selected beneficiaries in the form of Framework Partnership Agreements (hereafter “FPA”); the activities of the FPA(s) are implemented through Specific Grants (hereafter “SG”). More specifically, in 2017 the Agency signed a Framework Partnership Agreement (FPA) with a Consortium coordinated by CNES for a period of 4 (four) years to establish cooperation between itself and the partners. The 2st SG was signed in 2019 for a period of 12 months to initiate the activities defined for such cooperation. Considering the need to ensure continuity of the above activities after this date, the Agency plans to extend this grant for 12 months during 2020.
Objectives pursued and foreseen results:
To provide access to a range of facilities and expertise at MS’ level for Galileo service performance monitoring, taking into account that: (1) GRC stand-alone capability is essential: contributions from other entities should be utilised to improve performance, but the GRC should be capable of carrying out its core tasks without these additional inputs; (2) supporting activities must be independent from the Galileo system; (3) GRC should benefit from but also contribute to maintain the long term competences and expertise at the level of MS; (4) Interfaces are defined by the GRC, MS’ contributions must comply with these.

9.1 Capacity Building Project, contribution of UNOOSA (GEX.0420)
LEGAL BASIS
Regulation (EU) No 1285/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 on the implementation and exploitation of European satellite navigation systems and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 876/2002 and Regulation (EC) No 683/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Delegation Agreement between the European Union, represented by the European Commission and the European GNSS Agency on the Exploitation Phase of the Galileo Programme signed on 2 October 2014.
The direct grant tool is proposed to cover the contribution of UNOOSA in the Capacity Building project to be executed by the GSA in 2020.
UNOOSA possess numerous and unique features that set it apart from other organizations:
UNOOSA is the only intergovernmental body dedicated exclusively to space matters in the UN system, the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS). This unique responsibility places UNOOSA at the center of space affairs for all the space-related applications at the UN level, providing a privileged view on the interests and needs of all 193 UN Member States.
UNOOSA is leading the International Committee on GNSS (ICG), facilitating the global dialogue on compatibility, interoperability, and transparency amongst the global providers of GNSS. As the lead of the ICG Working Group C on Information Dissemination and Capacity Building, it works on global GNSS education development and capacity building of developing countries in using GNSS technology for sustainable development and has a unique position to present activities to participants in this WG.
UNOOSA developed and is responsible for the education curriculum on GNSS used by the Regional Centers Affiliated to the United Nations and located in India and China for Asia and the Pacific, in Morocco and Nigeria for Africa, in Brazil and Mexico for Latin America and the Caribbean and in Jordan for West Asia.
Within the space downstream no other organization could be identified that would represent a similar network of global contacts and have the tools to shape global capacity building in GNSS.
