EU funds as grants encourage the reduction of regional inequalities through the development of less developed areas. Most of the stakeholders are gravitating to the ideal situation, in which whole available funds will be attracted and implemented, therefore efficacy of territorial unit is most often and simplest measured by the number of projects, and by the amount of money implemented through this projects. More development projects do not necessarily mean more benefits for a particular area. It is necessary to direct resources well in order to achieve maximum effects. This paper shows the importance of smart planning and strategic thinking through the analysis of the impact of funded projects on development. The survey was conducted through a survey questionnaire on a sample of 78 consultants for EU funds where their experiences and impacts of the projects in which they participated were analyzed.
