The Programme of Work is grouped in a way that allows the reader to assess the plans for
2013 in two different ways:
1. Following the functional structure of Frontex or
2. Following Frontex’ portfolio.
The first part of the document (General Part) starts with an Introduction and outlines
Frontex’ Mission and Vision and the Approach taken. The Environmental Scanning section
briefly touches on Frontex’ societal environment and elaborates in more detail on the
implementation of the amended Frontex’ Regulation and the (draft) Eurosur Regulation. The
chapter closes with an elaboration on Risks encountered, Mitigation measures proposed and
an overview of the human and financial resources needed to implement the suggested
activities.
As indicated by the heading, this chapter is required to be read regardless of the perspective
the reader would prefer to take for the rest of the document.
The second part of the document (Frontex’ Key Business Areas) follows the functional
structure of Frontex and contains, after a short explanation of prioritization and
performance indicators, an overview of objectives, outputs (projects/products/services),
performance indicators and resource allocations per unit.
The third part consists of a number of attached annexes (Annex 1 – Annex 4) and follows a
holistic approach elaborating on the elements of Frontex’ integrated portfolio.
Annex 1 and 2 elaborate on the Capacity Building and Administration Portfolios. Annex 3
summarized the indicators used to measure the performance of Frontex (including targets).
Annex 4 contains an overview of procurement procedures to be launched during 2013.
Frontex’ Operational Portfolio, contained in Annex 5, has been classified as ‘RESTREINT UE’
due to its sensitive content, the disclosure of which would jeopardize and seriously harm the
success of MS driven and supported operational activities coordinated by Frontex.
