DEFINING A TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK WITHIN A DEFENSE ENTERPRISE

Abstract

Purpose- In this paper, the methodology of definition a tailored Technology Management (TM) Framework for a large scale enterprise defense company (HAVELSAN) will be explained briefly, and selected subset of TMF components in the company will be further discussed.

The method of managing technologies in enterprises depends primarily on the size of the company and its organizational structure. Methodology- The main purpose of this paper is the identification and analysis of the factors influencing the manner in which technologies are managed in big enterprise companies especially focused on defense industry.

Findings- The concepts that are investigated and the methodologies that are developed in this study are primarily based on the case of technology management framework within a defence technology enterprise.

Conclusion- The methods of defining a newly introduced Technology Management Framework (TMF) will help to enhance knowledge related to the development of methods used for technology management and the technology management tools in relation with each other.
