This paper introduces for discussion the need and opportunities for shipyards to diversify into new areas of business. The need for diversification results from reductions in defense spending and the difficulties U.S. shipbuilders are having in gaining new orders. Shipyards have unique abilities that can be competitive strengths in other markets. Among these strengths are the ability to handle large, complex projects, the range of skills among their workforce, and their proximity to water transportation facilities. Examples of shipyard participation in new markets demonstrates these strengths. Other markets addressed in this paper serve the utility and process industries, and the opportunities to participate in energy resource research and development.

The Government

The educatonal program development process is challenging with many stakeholders: students, teachers, parents, administrators, employers, and the government. Each stakeholder has compettve priorites; Quality, risk, resources and costs limitaton. Large complex projects require the management of a skilled and experienced project manager. It is the preparaton of curricula for joint internatonal educatonal programs with the use of Agile tools and technologies. The main "customer" in this program is a student, and the ultmate goal of each project within the program-the competence of the student in the labor market afer receiving the diploma. Therefore, this program can be considered difcult, and it is constantly evolves, because the demands of the labor market of China is constantly changing and developing.

Specific Project

This paper presents a framework for building governance regimes for large complex projects. The framework is based on three sources: 1) a re-examination of a study of 60 large capital projects (Miller & Lessard, 2000), 2) the institutional, corporate, and project governance literatures and 3) interviews centered on the revision of the British Private Finance Initiative and on the development of the Norwegian project approval process. The literature tends to treat governance issues as being static, but project development processes and environments are dynamic. The governance regimes must adapt to the specific project and context, deal with emergent complexity, and change as the project development process unfolds. Learning to manage project governance regimes is difficult for organizations that are not involved in great numbers of large complex projects. The framework based on the progressive shaping of the project through the project development life cycle is designed to help overcome this dilemma.

New Markets

For industry to remain competitive in the marketplace, it is essential to use research and developing technology to the fullest extent in developing new products and improving existing products. Both new technology and new markets must be developed. Corporations may perform research and development in-house or avail themselves of the technology developed by universities and other institutions described in published papers and reports. To be successful new product introduction must be carefully planned and take advantage of emerging needs and the unique capabilities of the marketing organization.

Contemporary Approach

RESUMENLos conceptos actuales de gestión del patrimonio edificado instituidos por ICOMOS y el Consejo de Europa están avanzando más allá de la capacidad de nuestro sistema de gestión patrimonial. Sin embargo, muchos proyectos de investigación en el campo de la conservación se están llevando adelante mediante la colaboración entre universidades peruanas y reconocidas instituciones internacionales dedicadas a la protección del patrimonio edificado. Este estudio lista varias de estas experiencias nacionales, así como otras internacionales, que ayudan a entender la conservación como un proyecto de Investigación y Desarrollo (I+D)1 que conecte socios públicos, privados y académicos a través de la Cátedra Bruno Roselli, un programa avanzado de investigación que permitirá agilizar y apoyar a alcanzar un enfoque contemporáneo a la gestión del patrimonio construido peruano.PALABRAS CLAVEInvestigación y Desarrollo, información patrimonial, colaboración pública-privada-académica, arquitectura de tierra.ABSTRACTThe current concepts on management of the built Heritage led by ICOMOS and the European Council are moving forward beyond the building capacity of our current system of heritage management. However there are a lot of complex projects that are being carried out in partnerships between Peruvian academic institutions and major international conservation organizations. This paper lists some of the local and foreign experiences that can help to create a shift that will allow conservation as Research and Development (R&D) 2 ventures to connect public, private and academic partners through the Bruno Roselli Chair, a research program that will streamline and support a contemporary approach of the Peruvian built heritage.KEYWORDSResearch and Development, heritage information, public-private-academic partnership, earthen architecture.
