DEFINITE-CCRI Project Evaluation Guidebook
The Project Evaluation Guidebook serves as a comprehensive resource to help projects assess their readiness level and to take them through a self-paced due diligence process as structured by the DEFINITE-CCRI Deal Engine mechanism. The Guidebook will support project teams from the early stages of business model creation through to critical interactions with investors, providing a structured pathway for project success.
The framework set out in this Guidebook is designed to be applicable to and actionable by a broad range of circular economy projects, irrespective of their scope, location, stage of development and/or investment-readiness level, enabling project owners/developers to independently evaluate their current position and build the competencies required to secure investment. By offering practical tools, methodologies, and step-by-step guidance, the Guidebook empowers projects to achieve financial and technical robustness while enhancing their appeal to potential investors.
This Guidebook is the document version of the online Self-Assessment tool. The purpose of the web tool is the same as this document: to allow project leads to self-evaluate their own ventures, to learn the necessary steps to bring it to bankability and to understand how to best approach investors for capital deployment.
The Guidebook is composed of 4 sections:
Section 1: Pre-Screening Phase
Section 2: Readiness Phase
Section 3: Self-Paced Due Diligence Guidelines
Section 4: Checklist and Indications for Attracting Investors
