Team Organisation

The role and the responsibility of each member is clearly defined. The project manager is the leader, the expert is his depute. The main communication lines lead through the project manager who consults frequently with the expert to make his decisions.

Some roles - like tutor, librarian, or tool maker - are assigned case by case for each project (if they are needed).
