Scope and eligibility first
A practical pre-submission checklist for the 3-month PoC route.
The project is framed as small, eligible, collaborative, measurable, and careful with public claims before any submission is made.
Eligibility checklist
Eligibility evidence prepared for the application route.
This page records the public eligibility logic behind the proposed PoC. The official call guidance remains the source of truth.
UK work and exploitation
The proposal is framed as UK-led and substantially UK-delivered, with a clear UK benefit and exploitation route.
Budget and arrears planning
The 3-month PoC route can request up to £60,000. The budget design accounts for match or in-kind contribution and the expected arrears-based grant payment flow.
NQCC and partner fit
The proposal identifies the specific NQCC/SparQ support, quantum resources, academic advice, and sector feedback requested, while avoiding unconfirmed partner claims.
Synthetic data and human control
The PoC uses no real NHS, police, MOD, critical-infrastructure, or personal sensitive data. Outputs remain human-reviewable and limitation-aware.
No funded work before agreement
Grant-funded activity starts only after the grant offer letter and required agreements are in place.
