The Italian Institute of Research and Development - Research Organization S.r.l. is in possess of its own internal deliberative body called Technical Scientific Committee (TSC), which supports ISIRES in the analysis and coordination of design and experimentation activities in a wide range of sectors.
The TSC is ethical and it guarantees the freedom of research. it represents, through its varied composition of interdisciplinary figures, the attempt to express the different Research Areas to which the Research Organization wishes to address its objectives;
It is the task of the TSC to promote scientific debate, diffusion of technological innovation and knowledge in all its fields of application, as well as information about the work and dissemination of the results of the Research Organization.
he TSC examines and evaluates research and development projects presented to ISIRES in particular:
• Examines the prerequisites of applicants for the examination of research and development projects,
• Evaluates the admission criteria of research and development projects presented,
• Analyzes content and areas pertaining to the nature of the research (basic, industrial or scientific research or with comparative, interdisciplinary or transversal natures among them.),
• Identifies the innovative aspects in the proposed Research and Development Projects,
• Pass Judgement on the eligibility criteria of the contents described in the Proposed Projects.
A research and development project can be:
ADMITTED → Admission on the basis of the subjective requirements of the candidate and the objective requirements of the R&D Project.

Monitors the results of R&D Projects under the supervision of the R.O (Research organization).
In addition, the TSC:
• Suggests to the R.O the activities to be promoted (in the field of publishing or mass communication) for the dissemination of the results of some projects that are among the most innovative ones that the TSC itself has evaluated, or on any study activities and Internal research on topics highlighted by the activity of examining the Research and Development Projects presented or on different subjects or other subjects (born from the comparative and interdisciplinary report), provided they are considered of a certain interest and aimed at acquiring new knowledge or increase of existing ones.
• Seeks, under the supervision of the R.O, to transfer technology, disseminate and exchange results with universities or with other national or international research organizations or with local companies (or with their associations of category).
• Contributes in the forms agreed with the R.O, to the preparation or updating of training paths through the transfer of the results of Studies and Research.
