Abstract:A current usage of information technology and management science techniques in R and D management is investigated. There is a significant gap between the prescriptions of academics and consultants and the actual usage of advanced techniques for project planning and control. Project selection techniques tend to be relatively simple, checklists and project profiles. In project planning and control program evaluation and review techniques based methods and research planning diagrams are much more popular than the more sophisticated approaches.
