The Technical Support Instrument (TSI) provides tailor-made technical expertise to EU Member States to design and to implement reforms, in a wide range of areas such as revenue administration and public financial management, public administration and governance, growth and business environment, labour market, education and social services, migration, and financial market and access to finance. The TSI has been also supporting the preparation and implementation of Recovery and Resilience Plans.
Initiated in 2021, the TSI is the successor of the Structural Reform Support Programme (SRSP). Since 2017, both programmes have helped design, develop and implement over 2000 reform projects in 27 Member States. Those reforms support Member States address their reform agenda, in line with the EU priorities and the country specific recommendations issued in the context of the European Semester.

Reform projects approved under the Technical Support Instrument
The Technical Support Instrument annual cycle is launched every year during the dedicated TSI Annual Conference. The conference also starts the discussion with Member States on potential multi-country projects, geared at addressing common issues among Member States thereby emphasizing the EU added-value of the instrument. The event is also the opportunity to present the new "Flagship" projects, supporting reforms which are largely needed across Member States and are in line with the EU key political priorities.
