Abstract: The successful writing and management of collaborative research projects requires a common understanding of the project's objectives by all partners involved. It also requires a clear vision of the project inputs and outputs. This paper presents two case-studies where concept maps were used as a knowledge management tool in order to support both project life-cycle management and project proposal writing. Concept maps were drawn in both cases in order to describe the main activities executed in the project work packages (WPs) and to show how the WPs were linked to each other.
