Conditions and methods for idea generation were gathered from the questionnaire survey for development managers. Idea is likely generated when an incompleteness is allowed, team members are self-motivated, and tasks are urgent. The importance of these conditions varies according to the stage of development. There are 80 methods to fulfill the conditions in a team. They are applicable in food, soft- ware, and home electronics developments, and in the workshops in educational institutions. We expect to apply the methods in idea generation stage of 3S model and Boost-Gate method®.

Software developed in the external project is transferred the operation side through the customer. Value of the software is found to use customers in the operational phase. To be aware that transfer the value is created at each stage of software development is important in the project. However, the transfer process is different depending on the contract with a customer and, is difficult to standardize. This paper shows, as ”a knowledge transfer model with an awareness of operations in software development projects,” the solution utilizing the P2M. This model contributes to software development, by revealing the process of development projects to be aware of the explicit knowledge and tacit knowledge to transfer to the operation in the life cycle of a project.

We must perform improvement, reform so that a company continues. The imbalance of the employee occurs in the process, and the adjustment of the employees is necessary, too. The company sends an employee out, and the outplacement company takes care of him and carries duties to provide a place made use of the human resource in in other companies. ”The assent” of the person is important to go out of the company with the employee, and to work lively in a different company. The carrier consultant begins with the support that the person performs convincible implication about leaving the office of the former work and performs support that a talented person understands in the new place and takes new work. It is with a problem when I think about importance of ”the assent” at the time of the carrier transfer of such human resource how you contribute service to there. Therefore, it is with a situation unifying a human resources development project and the post of case projects of the company of every person of reemployment when I diagnose a carrier consultant as a program manager.

As a result, by the mechanism of the operation of sharing and every day of the platform, and pointed out the possibility of overcoming the challenges.

In this paper we focus on Project & Program Management(P2M) for systems design of variety of services in IoE Era. For P2M in IoE era we have to manage many components of micro services and its orchestration.However data base solution on cloud is even now used for the architecture of IoT service development. Where top down design of the system is done and there is a few on-site capability development and “Kaizen”(Continuous Improvement). We focus on new architecture design on fog computing domain for the orchestration of micro services on role containers depending of 3S Model of P2M, where we stress on bottom up development of micro services and its orchestration.

The community has a great variety of problems, and the problems that are hard to support pile up with the existing frame.The individual method to contribute to the solution of the regional problem is accumulated, but the method of the complex problem solution is not shown.A purpose of this study is to show the method that is effective for complex regional problem solution.In ”a whole mission” to become the starting point of the program, introduce ”value discovery” and ”value realization” a ”value acquisition” of the value creation process.By the introduction of the value creation process,”A whole mission” was shared as ”mind of the collaboration” that was easy to be seen in the community,and the program management captured the association of plural projects to advance in parallel at the same time. This study considers knowledge and the effectiveness in the introduction of the value creation process.

The aim of this report is to clarify the position and the problems of alliance activities for industry- university collaboration research in the P2M area. We have reviewed a series of reports focusing on modeling and analysis of related activities. Our results are as follows: (1) We expanded the area of P2M research especially on the platform management toward industry-academia collaborations. (2) We incorporated a micro-perspective into the conventional macro-industry-academia collaboration research that is mainly based on the fact analysis and statistics, by introducing modeling that adds the knowledge in business administration to P2M Ver. 2.

In Tsuru City in Yamanashi Prefecture, the city government, citizens and academic collaboration established three small hydro electric power plants in the city. These three small hydro electric power plants put an emphasis on education of local people rather than making money from selling energy. Electric power generated by these three small hydro electric power plants is sent to the municipal government building, Eco-House and Plant Factory. However, during low consuming time such as weekends and night time, electricity produced by these small hydro power plants is selling to Tokyo Electric Power Corp. (TEPCO) due to Feed in Tariff system. This article analyzed local community revitalization program in Tsuru City using P2M methods including Logic Model, Cross SWOT and Balanced Score Card. These analyses showed that the Tsuru program utilizing small hydro plants successfully contributed for creating new values in the area.

This concept also contributes to overcome the Chasm that will disturb all diffusion of completely new products developed by the destructive innovation. In an innovative company, however, PMO (program management office) should continuously re-organize their business projects to enhance corporate sustainability.

Official Development Assistance (ODA) often deals with “Social” programs that have many stakeholders and benefit specific regional societies. This paper is focused on profiling of programs and projects with such problems so as to examine desirable management. For that purpose, two cases are analyzed, on-going agricultural development in Vietnam and waterworks in Cambodia which has been conducted for more than twenty years ago. The analysis leads to conclusion that problems consist of combination of system groups extending into plural dimensions in such complicated programs, value creation of such programs require coordinating many efforts and internalize the important assumptions (external conditions) of specific projects by proper profiling and integration management.

The authors, in our previous paper, have described two features of the multi-program platform structure; the first one is the orchestration by the super program and the second one is the dynamic alignment of strategic objectives under two R&D programs. It is important that to communicate between both perspective R&D programs because these programs manage highly uncertain activities. Communicating between both perspectives, however, are tough challenges because each perspective has different language and culture (custom) in the organization. In order to solve the challenge, in this paper, we will discuss a decision-making protocol for orchestration between the R&D programs and propose decision-making structure based on the one.
