The IZKF has introduced a new, more modern and flexible application system. In future, all IZKF calls for proposals and the follow-up of projects will be carried out via the so-called “FlexAP”.Current projects as well as projects in follow-up status will be transfered from the old IZKF and ELAN tool systems to the new FlexAP in 2024. Affected project managers have already been informed about the transfer.
