for implementing regular and rational actualization and

development of the applied management technologies.

ROLE OF THE SECURITY AND DEFENSE R&D POLICY, CONCEPTS AND MODEL

- Is not the planning process of R&D activities too complicated and what is the level of the associated risk for the final results. - Is it clear enough the borderlines between the different management systems – DAS, IDRMS, FMS, which cover all activities within R&D management process.- Is it R&D management model efficient enough and does it work well on all management levels – strategic, tactical, operational.- Is it clear enough the content of different management components – policy, guidance and attendance/service for different management levels. - How can be assessed the achieved results from R&D management process by practically applied model from ROC point of view.
