The AARC Interoperability Framework comprises the AARC policy and technical guidelines as well as the Policy Development KIT (PDK). The AARC guidelines help communities and infrastructures to implement and operate an AARC BPA complaint AAI in an interoperable way.

The AARC guidelines address different topics and their development is driven by use-cases. The AARC Guidelines are endorsed by AEGIS, the AARC Engagement Group for Infrastructures, which was estabilished in 2019. AEGIS brings together representatives from research and e-infrastructures, operators of AAI that follow the AARC BPA and the AARC policy and technical team, to bridge communication gaps and make the most of common synergies.

Unique value proposition

The unique selling proposition (USP), also called the unique selling point, or the unique value proposition (UVP) in the business model canvas, is the marketing strategy of informing customers about how one's own brand or product is superior to its competitors (in addition to its other values).

Do you have a scalable business model?

For a business model to be scalable, staffing requirements should grow in a strongly sublinear fashion and/or the revenue per customer (or end-user) should remain relatively stable. Grant-based sustainability is usually not scalable, nor is consulting. Franchising, licensing and platform business models can be.
