Abstract
The paper explores some of the dimensions of the R&D processes: modularity, uncertainty and outsourcing. Ways to divide R&D effort into modules and to argue, either in direction of its modularity, or interdependency, are presented. Further on, uncertainties are segmented into the majors and minors, and reasons to outsource R&D modules, in the light of these uncertainties, have been investigated. The R&D process has been observed from insulin technologies development over time.
