Article Abstract:
A resource-based analysis is applied to research and development, and a theory is proposed that delineates the dynamic transformation and interaction of five primary resources: physical, relational, organizational, human, and monetary. The method allows identification of those which are over-utilized or under-utilized, helping to eliminate organizational inefficiency.
