The value-based evaluation approach is expected to lead to a better understanding of the value structure of pharmaceutical products compared to the current volume-based one by identifying key drivers for improving R&D productivity. In the present study, we conducted a comparative analysis based on a conventional valuation methodology across the nationality and business model of pharmaceutical firms using a value-based database. We selected five major pharmaceutical firms in terms of corporate value from Japan, the U.S., and Europe, as well as three biotech firms. We chose five representative pipeline products from each of these firms. Comparative analyses using net present value or NPV, peak sales, and lifespan that is represented as the ratio of total sales to peak sales revealed significant differences based on firm types and the origin of products (in-house or external), which have not been observed in the conventional volume-based approach. Thus, the findings provide additional implications for pharmaceutical value-formation processes and mechanisms. The present study advocates a segmented analysis of the activities of individual firms and emphasises the utility of value-based management for improving R&D productivity.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121402747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the perspective of the institutional structure and the method of policy for bibliometrics, we analyzed Chinese policies of government procurement to promote scientific and technological innovation, revealed the policymaking characteristics, and concluded that the Ministry of Finance should appropriately decentralize the policymaking work to other relevant departments of the State Council. This paper compares the main policy tools from five dimensions among China and other typical countries, such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, France, and so on. Five aspects, which include establishing the database for vendors of micro, small, and medium enterprises; developing the grade system and the post evaluation system; formulating detailed implementation methods of innovative products and services; carrying out classification management for imported products; and setting mandatory insurances. In general, for the policies of government procurement to promote scientific and technological innovation, this paper provides an effective reference for organizing the agencies and formulating the detail measures.

Since companies need technologies to transform their business processes corresponding to the digital revolution, they need to know which technologies are available, and fit the best for their use case. Their inertial issue is the lacking overview of technologies suitable to connect their production or logistics. Hence, this paper presents a methodology to select technologies (and combinations) based on their functions. It differentiates between information and communication technologies, digital technologies and connecting technologies by the physical function and its role in a cyber-physical system. Depending on the use case, the applicability of every technology varies. Due to that reason, the paper illustrates a ranked qualification of the technologies for typical use cases, focussing tracking and tracing issues in the intralogistics of producing companies. The evaluation is performed upon a literature research, a market study to identify suitable technologies, and various expert interviews to assess the applicability of the technologies.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128617321","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most open technological innovation literature has focused on inbound innovation, with few papers mentioning the value of outbound technological innovation. These papers found the phenomena of learning-by-exposure or recipient-guided unfamiliar knowledge exploration, which entails technological learning by an original technology holder from those who had learned from the originator. Although this discovery is unique, they left one question: Can outbound technology be used as a strategic tool to learn from technological alliance partners? We examined this by using patents from 114 research consortia with the assumption that citations of patents with certain time-lags represent knowledge flows between two parties. We analyzed 913 backward and forward citation pairs that share the same applicant. Our quantitative test illustrates the positive effect of technological knowledge spillovers and subsequent absorption of the focal technology. Patents indirectly citing patents from originating firms via patents from others show significantly high technological value; however, this effect is only observed in spillovers to third parties of research consortia. In other words, recipient-guided exploration is an almost-uncontrollable side effect. At the same time, our analysis revealed that knowledge spillovers are not always negative for originating firms.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124585117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To communicate environmental information adequately and effectively, the mass media need to provide suitable information and channels so the community can acquire new information, and thus generate innovations. In addition, new media have become quite important and convenient to a new generation. The purpose of this study is to investigate ways to shoot and produce an interactive short film for new media regarding popular environmentally-important issues that will increase audience learning and involvement. The researchers chose to use as a sample topic an environmental news feature issue: ways microplastics spell big problems for future generations. This application paper indicates methods of producing an interactive popular science video step-by-step, and especially focus on shooting methods, one of the most important parts for producing short films. Having produced an interactive short film, the researchers launched two focus group interviews of 12 audience members to discuss their perceptions and understanding of this short film. This study aims to compare their interests, perception and understanding regarding this popular science short film against the skills involved in video shooting and production to gain insight into the factors which affected audience understanding of the film.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130181526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It prohibits employees to know information about internal procedure as well as the research center's products. From the stability and continuity point of view, the wider information gap among employees, the lower efficiency to reach the mission-vision of R&D centers. This work studied particularly the internal process dimension of Competing Values Framework as it assesses directly the stability and continuity of organization. This study used semi-structured interview and proposed to adapt Chatbot technology to help reduce such information gap. The quantitative and qualitative analyses have been discussed. The results show that the methodology used in this work can illustrate the current organizational climate, particularly in internal process facet, and confirm the usefulness of the proposed Chatbot technology adaptation for the case study R&D center. This study suggests that research center should manage their own research products in a way that they can be reach by its employees. This makes it more efficient to disseminate knowledge and products of the research center to private sector and to society.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121254022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These providers aim to standardize IT services to reduce development costs and improve quality. However, IT service requirements differ for each user; therefore, the providers cannot completely meet the users' requirements. Furthermore, the business environment of users is changing rapidly, and accordingly, the IT services should change as well. Therefore, IT providers cannot manage a continuous IT service development process very well. To address this challenge, we propose a new IT service development model based on a service ecosystem. This model suggests building a service ecosystem and defining the requirement phase before IT service development. Furthermore, it recommends that IT providers develop IT services and create value with partners in the service ecosystem. Consequently, there are diverse IT services in the service ecosystem. Compared with traditional IT development models, the IT providers can manage their services more effectively with the implementation of the proposed model.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126761693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
