Resum

This paper shows the results from a survey to Spanish manufacturing firms on the use of indicators and methods to analyze the efficiency of their R&D activities. The use of quantitative indicators has been found to be very similar than the use of qualitative indicators. On the other hand, ratios and finantial methods are the most used techniques. The differences in the use of indicators and methods are significative for the most R&D intensive companies. The use of some techniques is related to the control mechanisms applied to R&D projects
