Description - The Outsourcing R & D Toolkit by Peter Sammons
A guide to research and development, covering all the strategic and tactical issues necessary for a company to decide whether to buy-in some or all of their knowledge-based services. It also provides a toolbox of commercial materials to enable better control of external R&D projects. There are two main parts. The first, "Buying Knowledge", provides a briefing on contract research and development, practices, procedures and pitfalls. It includes about 70 learning points which highlight issues which are particularly important to companies buying in R&D services. The second part, "Contract Research Toolbox", contains template contract and contract management documents including instructions for use. These materials are subtly tailored to the commercial interests of the knowledge buyer and form a contracting system in their own right. They may also be used to benchmark existing company practices and procedures.
