50 License agreements to use Jems

Interact tools Jems

More than half of all Interreg programmes in the 2021-2027 period have now signed a license agreement for Jems, the Joint Electronic Monitoring System, developed by Interact.

Jems is built from the HIT tools which provide harmonised and simplified best practice. Jems is available on a free-license basis, which dramatically reduces the cost, both in time and money, which programmes need to invest in order to comply with e-cohesion reporting requirements.

The particular benefit to Jems, is that it is a software designed for the unique characteristics of Interreg and implements the harmonised best practice established in HIT. Interact is especially grateful to the Jems Core group who have supported the development of the system, and represented the interests of all programmes in their work.

To date, the wider Interreg community has supported the development by attending over 70 sprint reviews, which are held every two weeks, to help test and improve the system. The responsive feedback process has contributed to the software being designed with close alignment to the needs of programmes working in a harmonised way. The signing of 50 license agreements shows the effectiveness of this approach, and confirms that will Jems support more than half of all Interreg programmes, and one non-Interreg [programme/fund], in the 2021-2027 period.
