VI. NETWORK OF TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE SUPPORT SERVICES
A.
Summary: Modes of Technology Transfer
118.
The U.S. industry sector survey reports conducted from
1948 through 1950 in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Austria,
Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark and Norway revealed that productivity
restructuring essential to improvement would require hundreds of
changes in plant equipment and organization, in management and
supervisory training, product design, marketing, accounting,
productivity statistics, and other elements of production. 33 In
consultation with industry and government counterparts in the
countries surveyed, a comprehensive network of back-up Technical
Assistance services was established to meet anticipated nation-wide
needs following the return of the Productivity Teams. The TA
services were designed to support productivity restructuring
programs undertaken by sectors, enterprises, distribution channels,
marketing organizations, and training and educational
institutions. 34

The network of TA support included some conventional
services such as U.S. engineers and managerial personnel supplied
³³BLS, "Productivity and Technological Development Branch
Reports" of August 2, 1948 and December 31, 1948, and ECA, OSR, and
BLS, unpublished reports and memoranda of 1949 and 1950.
³⁴ECA unpublished reports and memoranda of 1949 and May 1,
1950.
