Collaborative and commissioned activities (BOA)

Here is another option I found in NTNU's Annual Report 2010.
Example sentence:

Revenue within collaborative and commissioned activities (BOA) is divided into two.

Collaborative activity is defined as financial support from a donor where there is no requirement for counter-performance and where the recipient may also contribute to the project.

Peer comment(s):

agree Charles Ek : I know I have a similar reference buried somewhere among my TMs. I'll try to find it.

grant-funded and externally-financed activity

See the link for a description in Norwegian from NTNU.
Note from asker:
Thanks so much for the clue! The NTNU term seems incredibly awkward. I kept looking and found 'External Operations' as a possibility, a term the BOA people I know like.
