productivity using metrics

A- 2000 word research proposal on the subject matter and 12000 word research paper. The priority at this time is the research proposal as soon as possible, and the paper can be delivered at a later time. Work should be both quantitative and qualitative. It should focus on analyzing research productivity using metrics such as (ROI on R&D spend, # molecules obtaining FDA or EU approval, # of new launches, etc) and comparing them for both Roche and Genentech before and after the transaction took place. Could use t-tests or other applicable statistical analyses to express variance and trends. Graphical representations are welcome.
