The RECORD Experimental Map: innovative research organisations in European accession countries: Budapest, January 2004
This Experimental Map is the first application of the RECORD Benchmarking Manual, which was designed for benchmarking the activities in scientific research organisations, the institutions that play a central role in a country's innovation system. The book contains empirical information (survey results and case studies) on research institutions of Central and Eastern Europe, showing how the fashionable term of the 'centres of excellence' can be treated in practice in this region of the European Research Area. The main message of the experimental map is that the internationally competitive and innovative research organisations are few in number in these countries and with the help of the Benchmarking Manual the most important gaps in the management of these organisations can be identified in order to learn and improve performance
The RECORD Manual: benchmarking innovative research organisations in European accession countries: Budapest, January 2004
This manual was designed in the benchmarking of the activities pursued in scientific research organisations that do or intend to support innovation in their economy and society. The authors of this manual think that the RECORD benchmarking methodology proposed serves a fourfold objective in the Accession States: - to help the spread of a modern management tool; - to map competitive innovative excellence, competencies, factors of success (and failures); - to improve performance and practice in the organisations and the national innovation systems concerned, in learning organisations and in the policy making process; - to provide a better basis for channelling of funds and allocation of resources and factors
