 Agreement costs within the range of the previous spending level
FINANCIAL SHIFT

Transfomative agreements vary by their transformative mechanisms, meaning the way in which financing is shifted from the subscription side to open access publishing. What are the characteristics of this agreement to this regard?

 Subscriptions fully converted to OA publishing fees (access related costs 5% or less)
RISK SHARING

How do entitlements for open access publishing correlate to the anticipated article output? Which mechanisms for risk sharing have been agreed in cases of exceeding or not reaching the number of OA publishing entitlements?

 About 44% of the total expected academic papers will be converted during the three years.

We have a limited APC for each year, controlled by the dashboard, which is managed by a person who will prevent the set limits from being exceeded. In addition, one of his tasks will be to promote and make visible the transformative agreements among the institutions so that all negotiated APCs will be totally used.

WORKFLOW ASSESSMENT Too early to assess
OVERALL ASSESSMENT AND COMMENTS These are the first transformative agreements in Colombia and Latin America, and we hope that this will have a positive impact on the transition to open science.

One of the benefits is that the institutions that are part of the Consorcio Colombia will save about USD$ 500.000 in APC payments through the transformative agreements signed.

Based on the experience of this first year, researchers’ and institution comments will be considered for the coming years, such as the inclusion of more journals.

Any unused articles at the end of a calendar year, will not carry over to the next calendar year and are not refundable.
