To foster the rise of SMEs, many governments have established centers to promote innovation and diffusion. This paper examines the role of the Japanese Public Testing and Research (PTR) centers, which have been proposed as a model for other countries. The paper outlines the background and overall activities of the PTR centers, and then focuses on how PTR centers have assisted SMEs in the vicinity of Japan's five large car makers. It is found that in 1986 the PTR center near Toyota's main assembly facilities performed the largest number of test inspections. The extraordinary number of inspections indicates that the Toyota production system calls for a particularly high degree of outside certification. Technical consultations played a greater role at PTR centers in the vicinity of other Japanese auto producers, indicating that suppliers gained more independence from their client firms." @default.
