R&D’s readers select their favorite companies based on the R&D performance, reputation, growth, and service of these technology leaders to the community.Corporate research and development has become a global operation, with most large, and even small, companies maintaining and building R&D operations in far-flung offices. U.S.-based IBM, for example, is now said to have more scientists and engineers in India than it has in the U.S. Similarly, a number of large European and Asian pharmaceutical companies have more research resources in the U.S. than they do in their home countries to support the world’s largest healthcare market and researcher base. # V.

As a result, categorizing the “best” of these organizations is a difficult task, at best. How do you rate a company whose R&D organization is a large network of global facilities, products, technologies, and researchers? The most commonly used metrics for measuring R&D per the Goldense Group Inc., Dedham, Mass., include overall R&D spending (as a function of percent of revenues), the number of patents received, the number of new products as a percent of sales, changes in R&D headcount, the number of new products in the pipeline, and the organization’s overall investment in new product development. R&D Magazine’s editors used these data and additionally surveyed our readers. The R&D performance of more than 130 R&D-intensive companies was evaluated and combined with data on intellectual property, community service, and financial growth trends of these companies.9 B* D5 w3 e! z7 e; ?
