Report of the National Advisory Board on Science and Technology, Committee on Technology Acquisition and Diffusion.: ST94-23/1992E-PDF

"Industrial managers and government policymakers in all parts of the world feel the urgency which has been generated by the rapid changes in the character of the global marketplace. The ever-increasing pace of technological change and the growing economic significance of knowledge-based industrial activity, in all economic sectors, have raised to the highest levels the challenge of keeping a country's firms at or near the leading edge of management systems, processing technology and new product development. Never before have firms everywhere been so aware of the need to measure up to the competition"--Background, page 1.
