Develop
The first-years’ experiences, obtained from the
production of studies by means of applied research methodologies,brought
Irepa to extend its services and technical assistance
to the Public Administration. This strategic choice
led Irepa to successfully develop study areas to meet
the ever-changing demands over time. In the field of
the fishery economy, Irepa has gained a reputation as
a centre of excellence with a leading role both nationally
and internationally. Its researches have become a reference
point of the highest scientific level and are often
quoted for the contribution to the socio-economic understanding
of the fishery food chain.
Following the globalisation process in other economic
sectors, the research and the technical assistance to
fishery are increasingly integrated. Accordingly, the
IT revolution introduced new tools, which led the Institute
to re-organise itself to maintain its high competitiveness.
The technological changes allow for the development
of new services, which have become the core of this
rearrangement. The Italian and European fishery food
chain influence the economic system and represent a
driving force for the development of the productive
system. Therefore, the research and the technical assistance
developed in this field are closely connected to the
sector development itself. The competences and the interdisciplinary
character of the Institute permitted greater partnership
in research projects and improvement in the technical
assistance provided to public administrations. In order
to develop a system of support for decision-making (SSD)
the records available by the national and local administrative
offices were collected and rearranged within a data
warehousing system that serves a wide range of analysis.
Starting from the observation of available data and
informative reports, this approach enables public administrators
to make decisions related to the planning activity at
different levels.
