Plan to Develop Linkage and Project Management Networks in Health R&D Institutions: A Case Study
Journal Title: Revista CEA - Year 2020, Vol 6, Issue 12
Abstract
This paper presents the case of the National Institute of Genomic Medicine (abbreviated INMEGEN in Spanish) which is part of the Ministry of Health of the Federal Government of Mexico. This institute conducts Research and Development (R&D) studies in genomic medicine. Its linkage activities have traditionally and primarily been focused on academic and research collaborations. However, given the intense internal and external changes and considering the economic austerity raised by the current government, further linkage activities should be implemented to promote new projects and generate external revenues under a modern administration scheme. To identify the actions that may help to address this need, we propose to develop a strategic plan based on technology innovation networks. The planning methodology includes four steps: (a) carrying out an analysis to determine the baseline situation, (b) establishing the conditions for planning, (c) designing a regulatory strategy to achieve the expected future situation, and (d) developing a tactical plan with short-, medium-, and long-term actions. In conclusion, the proposed plan to boost, improve, and systematize project management and linkage activities with society suggest the need to take two fundamental measures: (a) building innovation networks with national and international private and public institutions, and (b) getting closer and having a direct contact with communities using mobile and itinerant units to bring genomic medicine services directly to various areas of Mexico City and its metropolitan area.
