... Based on these visions, the industry groups will develop research agendas, devise implementation strategies to meet their high priority needs, and commit the resources to conduct and manage the research projects. OIT facilitates the IOF process by assisting with planning, coordinating participants and catalyzing industry interactions, providing access to the national laboratories, and sharing the cost of selected projects.

... COMMITTEE ON INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENTS The OIT asked the National Research Council (NRC) , through the National Materials Advisory Board, to conduct a study to evaluate their program strategy and to provide guidance during the transition to the new IOF strategy and assess the effects of the change on crosscutting technology programs, that is, programs to develop technologies applicable to several industries.

... The panel was charged with the following tasks: · to review the progress and accomplishments of the intermetallic alloy research and development program · to describe program management strategies, including selection criteria, commercialization plans, and industry involvement · to describe successful and unsuccessful efforts to develop commercial applications for intermetallic alloys to suggest potential applications in the OIT target industries, including steel, forest products, glass, metal casting, aluminum, chemicals, and petroleum refining · to recommend criteria for selecting and prioritizing future projects for the research and development of intermetallic materials and processes The panel's evaluation included a site visit to ORNL on June 6 and 7, 1996, when panel members met with key ORNL researchers, program managers, and industrial participants to discuss progress and plans, review program strategies and accomplishments, and tour the laboratory facilities. The agenda for the evaluation meeting and a list of participants appears in Appendix A
