OBJECTIVE AND PROCEDURE

The way many companies identify resource requirements is to solicit resource budgets from each department covering a 1 to 5 year period. However, before the managers can prepare budgets they need to know what requirements they will have to meet. They will need access to the corporate plans, sales forecasts, new product development plans, marketing plans, production plans, etc. as well as the quality policies, objectives, and procedures. 

Objectives and procedures stated in the approved protocol, including any changes in the original protocol. 

Standards used in connection with technology, industry, and business cover both material objects and procedures. 

The Research and Innovation Area Study (RIAS) is a study being conducted for the Joint Economic Committee of the U.S. Congress, which is currently chaired by Senator Lloyd Bentsen of Texas. We have been working on RIAS for about two years now and are in the process of completing the first phase. The entire study is scheduled for completion in mid-1980. The objectives and procedures of the study, the contents of the final report, and some of its implications are described in this paper.

In decontamination, one must change the condition or location of the contamination, often creating more hazardous conditions in the interim, before the situation is stabilized. This is why it is so important that the worker knows the characteristics of the contamination, environment, work objectives, and procedures.
