A Consortium will usually consist of non-competitive sponsors who will benefit from shared cost economies but receive the provision of experience and insight at high quality, strategic research standards. Projects are tailored to the benefits of the
sponsors, and the fees range from £10,000 to £60,000 depending on the involvement of the sponsor and the structure of the consortium.
