In the process of catering to the diversified needs and challenges, it is essential to develop professionally managed purchase departments for public and private sectors in India and Abroad. Technological upgradation is inherent process in development of any organization and country. Technological upgradation in order to enhance efficiency and productivity of manufacturing unit primarily depends upon the acquisition of technologically superior equipment for right applications. In order to cultivate the culture of technology improvement and transfer, every developing country, organization should analyze and track number of equipment purchased with the intention of technology transfer. However, there are lot of factors and obstacles in this process. The objective of this research paper is to conduct bibliometric study on purchase and technology Transfer with reference to industrial equipments and understanding different variables affecting technology transfer. This research paper has highlighted the necessity of conducting such an analysis by countries and organizations whose objective is to technologically upgraded. The methodology used in this research is bibliometric analysis of research publications from Scopus and google scholar indexed journals. Research reveals different factors affecting technology transfer through purchase of technical equipments. Procurement of new technology equipments requires change in the technical description and their approvals, trained manpower and adoptability for the change. Existing purchase processes focuses on continuation of operations rather than technological upgradation.

The government of Malaysia has introduced several national policies to facilitate industrialisation and technology development in the country throughout the years. However, the effectiveness of this policy in facilitating technology transfer has never be measured quantitatively. The objective of this paper is to review the evolution of Malaysia's technology transfer model and process since Malaysia gained its independence. This paper will look into the past and current national policies that have facilitated the technology transfer process in the country. A literature review was conducted on various frequently used technology transfer model since 1940s and compare it to the technology transfer process evolution in the country. From the analysis, the national policies introduced over the years have a direct and indirect effect on the technology transfer process in the country. However, the effectiveness of technology transfer model that was facilitated by the policy was never measured quantitatively. Further study needs to be conducted in measuring the efficiency of the technology transfer process that facilitated by a specific policy introduced by the government. The factors and sub-factors affecting the technology transfer process facilitated by this specific policy also need to be identified so that further improvement can be proposed.

The purpose of our study was to propose the measures necessary to promote industry-academic cooperation by investigating and analyzing factors affecting its performance Recently, the Korean government increased the budget available for industry-academic cooperation to help nurture industrial talent and promote industry-academic cooperation. In our study, the results of industry-academic cooperation for 48 universities that carried out the 5-year LINC development project from 2012 to 2016 were analyzed via panel analysis to identify any factors affecting the performance. Our analysis revealed that the organizational capabilities of the university—including the number of dedicated professors, the number of projects assigned, and the financial support—had a significant effect on technical commercialization. In addition, we found that the moderating effect of allied companies on the relationship between the organizational capabilities of universities and their technical commercialization was significant. However, the results of our analysis differed depending on university location. Universities in and around the Capital region benefited from their organizational capabilities and cooperation with allied companies. Based on the results of the analysis, we conclude that it is necessary to consider a variety of factors, including efficient support of the industry-academic cooperation budget and practical application of industry-academic cooperation systems.
