Evaluation report of the ECCC required under Article 38(4) of Regulation (EU) 2021/887

The contractor will support the European Commission, under Article 38(4) of Regulation (EU) 2021/887, in carrying out a comprehensive evaluation of the European Cybersecurity Competence Centre following the submission of its implementation report. The evaluation will assess the effectiveness of the ECCC’s mandate, its legal and administrative framework, and the functioning of its governance and coordination mechanisms, taking into account input from the Governing Board, National Coordination Centres and the wider cybersecurity community.

The study will also examine the extent to which the ECCC creates synergies with other Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies, and identify opportunities to reduce fragmentation, overlaps and inefficiencies within the EU cybersecurity ecosystem.
