Central to SUMP-PLUS, PORTIS, CREATE, and FastTrack — all focused on urban transport sustainability and planning guidance.
EUROPEAN INTEGRATED PROJECT
Romanian transport consultancy specializing in sustainable urban mobility planning, road-space optimization, and port-city logistics across European consortia.
Their core work
European Integrated Project is a Romanian private company specializing in sustainable urban transport consulting, policy support, and mobility planning across European cities. They contribute to EU-funded projects by providing expertise in sustainable urban mobility plans (SUMPs), road-space management, multimodal transport optimization, and tourism mobility strategies. Their work spans from data gathering and transport behavior analysis to helping cities redesign how road space is allocated among different transport modes. Based in Bucharest, they serve as a consistent implementation and knowledge partner in large European transport consortia.
What they specialise in
MORE focused directly on road-space allocation, new materials for road infrastructure, and dynamic road signing; complemented by CREATE's congestion reduction work.
DESTINATIONS addressed tourism mobility, shared economy models, and ITS in tourist cities; PORTIS integrated port-city sustainability.
MIND-SETS studied mobility behavior and transport system transformation; DESTINATIONS and CREATE involved systematic data gathering on urban transport patterns.
PIONEERS (2021-2026) targets emissions reduction solutions for port operations, signaling a move into maritime-urban logistics.
How they've shifted over time
In their early H2020 period (2014–2018), EIP focused on understanding transport behavior, congestion analysis, and tourism mobility — projects like MIND-SETS, CREATE, and DESTINATIONS dealt with data gathering, shared economy models, and public-private partnerships. From 2019 onward, their work shifted decisively toward actionable urban planning tools: SUMP/SULP guidance frameworks, road-space reallocation strategies, and multimodal optimization (SUMP-PLUS, MORE, FastTrack). Their most recent project, PIONEERS (2021–2026), suggests an expansion into port-related emissions reduction, adding a maritime dimension to their urban transport expertise.
EIP is moving from studying transport problems toward delivering planning tools and frameworks, with a new expansion into port-city emissions reduction that could open maritime logistics collaborations.
How they like to work
EIP operates exclusively as a consortium participant — they have never coordinated an H2020 project, which positions them as a reliable delivery partner rather than a project leader. With 162 unique partners across 26 countries in just 8 projects, they consistently join large, multi-city consortia (typical of CIVITAS-type transport projects). This broad network and repeat engagement in major transport initiatives makes them easy to work with and well-connected, though prospective partners should not expect them to lead proposal writing or consortium management.
With 162 unique consortium partners across 26 countries, EIP has an unusually wide European network for a company of its size — built through participation in large city-network transport projects spanning from Scandinavia to the Mediterranean.
What sets them apart
EIP brings a rare combination of Romanian urban transport expertise with deep experience in pan-European mobility planning frameworks. While many Western European consultancies dominate the SUMP space, EIP offers a Central-Eastern European perspective that is increasingly valued in EU transport projects requiring geographic balance. Their continuous presence across 8 transport projects from 2014 to 2026 demonstrates reliable, sustained engagement — a track record that de-risks consortium participation for coordinators.
Highlights from their portfolio
- PIONEERSTheir largest funded project (EUR 214,288) and most recent, running to 2026 — signals their strategic move into port emissions reduction and green maritime logistics.
- SUMP-PLUSDirectly addresses SUMP/SULP policy guidance and urban system transformation pathways — the core of EU urban mobility policy, with strong institutional relevance.
- MOREFocused on the practical challenge of reallocating road space for multimodal use, including new materials and dynamic signing — a tangible, infrastructure-oriented project.
