The European Union Integration Facility (EUIF) will contribute to increasing the effectiveness of IPA III, all management modes, including direct management by the European Commission, indirect management by Montenegro and with entrusted entities. Linked to this is also the capacity of Montenegrin national authorities to prepare mature actions and manage the implementation of EU funds in accordance with EU procurement and financial control standards.&nbsp;This Action would focus mainly on technical support and capacity building related to the EU accession process and it should ensure effectiveness and impact of actions financed through IPA funds.&nbsp;The EU Integration Facility shall provide flexible support to the national authorities aimed at addressing specific needs identified in the course of the implementation of IPA III (and IPA II to a lesser extent), but it may also be used in ad-hoc circumstances where EU assistance is required and/or suggested or in case of a crisis situation.Although there have been 33 chapters opened, gradual closing of negotiation chapters is a process which require considerable efforts. These efforts will include both human and financial resources and therefore the EU Integration Facility will be used to address some of the challenges in these chapters identified during the negotiation process. Coordination of the accession process and management of EU funds is present and visible in the administration structure, but it still needs support. While a series of institutional building actions were undertaken within the previous IPA programmes, capacities of line ministries and state agencies would need additional building.Also, the Action aims at providing flexible support to the Chief Negotiator / National IPA Coordinator (NIPAC) Office and to line ministries in addressing specific needs identified in the course of implementation of EU assistance ¿ IPA III, supporting accession negotiation process, and reinforcing the institutional capacities for managing accession process and EU funds. This objective will be achieved through capacity building interventions, preparation of well-targeted, mature and good quality actions or sector documents, preparation of tender documentation or other preparatory studies or through the implementation of activities that will ensure effective and timely implementation of IPA programmes. Evaluation of IPA II and IPA III actions may also be financed. Some needs related to the negotiation process not addressed in the rest of the programme could also be addressed.
