NASA is a global leader in aeronautics research and development fostering advances in aviation safety and emissions propulsion technology and many other areas. And the agency s Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate ARMD has played a vital role in the . aeronautics industry. In recent years the directorate s leaders and experts outside the agency have sought ways to speed innovative uses of ARMD s research results. But the directorate faces management challenges that make it difficult for such applications to succeed or to occur at all. This report from the National Academies National Research Council offers the agency guidance on how to manage the transfer of technology to external users as well as implement flexible personnel and financial-management practices.
