RE:
TECHNOLOGY PLAN Ref: Letter of PMN to HBC et al, 1/11/83 (attached)
As explained in the reference letter I am currently working with an interdepartmental committee to develop a corporate technology plan for Chemical Process R&D.
As part of the process of identifying those process-related technologies that are (or expected to be) key to the Du Pont Company, the committee will from time to time be asking for your input and judgement on various aspects of technology .
As initial input we need your help to complete the attached matrix tables C-l, B-l and B-2. Completed forms for some nylon intermediates are attached as examples of what is required. If additional categories as footnotes are needed to fit your situation, please don't hesitate to hand-write them in. We anticipate that the format of the tables may need to change as we gain more insight into the various technologies, and at this stage it is more desirable for us to get rapid input from you than a polished product.
Please return your responses to me as soon as possible, (by 1/19/83 at the latest) since the committee has been given an extremely tight schedule in which to complete its work.

Many thanks for your assistance. If you have questions please feel free to call me (299-4490). If I should be unavailable, please call our committee Chairman (Tom Sciance, 774-2728) rather than delay your response.

TECHNOLOGY PLAN
Gerry Culling is currently wo king on an interdepartmental committee to develop a corporate techno ogy plan for Chemical Process R 6 D.
To carry out his work* he neeqs a technical contact for each of our major products:
aniline aromatics THF Teracolr
colored pigments f1uorochernicals
formaldehyde
methi nol ami n4s/amides pero:^ygens soli< cyanides sulfi ric acid: titai ates
TiOj
The contact will help answer cuestions on key technologies* competitive position* and special R l D objectives.
Gerry would like the names of the technical contacts by January 12,
To simplify communications wh le Gerry is taking an ERD course this week* would you please phoni the names of the people you would like to function as technical con i acts to Linda Mahan at 772-4015 fcv 4 p.aT this aftornooi
