Corporate Services and Administration

General objective

CSA deals with knowledge management and co-ordinates courses on the fundamentals and applications of nuclear research.

CSA also comprises the administrative, financial, logistic and central technical services, as well as human resources and ICT.

Strategic priorities

The purpose of the regrouping of the supporting services is to form a larger coherence and to ensure a better follow-up of the tasks carried out for the general management and the other institutes. According to the general principles defined in the broad guidelines of the reorganisation, 3 lines of force must be emphasised:

• The rate of data transmission and of feedback to the different users by an increased use of the existing tools and this in collaboration with the strategic cell.
• The centralisation of competences (e.g. accounting, informatics, technical services) that allows to ensure sufficient permanence and create synergism between people who carry out equal or complementary tasks.
• A cost-benefit analysis in order to direct SCK•CEN to outsourcing for tasks that are not part of our main activity.
