Future plans include transferring the developed I-Salt technology to other salt producing regions in the country. This year, the agency continued to further expand its reach through technical interventions in a total of 13 different locations within and outside the country. To enhance DOST-ITDI's service delivery capability to industry, the Nano Membrane Research Laboratory was established to provide R&D and technical services in the field of membranes and nanotechnology.
This facility aims to accelerate the development of membrane nanotechnology in the country that finds applications in water purification and water/wastewater treatment.
This year, DOST-ITDI was granted five (5) utility models on durian and nano zeolite;

Five percent of the total number of tests came from the OneLab Network referral system. Nineteen new calibration services have boosted the performance of the National Metrological Laboratory (NML) for the year 2018. The continued efforts to promote new and existing services resulted in a 21% increase in the number of services provided by the laboratory, regardless of the decrease in the number of services provided. number of customers served.
A remarkable increase of 23% in the total income of the Advanced Device and Materials Testing Laboratory (ADMATEL) from 2017 to 2018 was recorded.
TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER
The commercialization of generated technologies and intellectual properties funded by PCIEERD continued with the execution of two more technology offerings during the first quarter of the year. The teams determined which technologies make business sense and have business value; how best to develop and expand the export trade prospects of the 27 technologies; and selecting which of the 27 technologies/products we want to trade and further develop according to current market trends. Together, the teams assessed the readiness of the 27 technologies and their project readiness for transition.
The results of the project will be compiled in a Compendere supported by 27 TRA reports, which are expected to affect different industrial sectors.

Through a proposal-driven project funded by DOST-GIA, the institute was able to participate in IFEX (International Food Exhibition) 2018, a DTI-CITEM engagement; where the DOST-ITDI Seafood Innovation Hub was among the main features of the event. The Institute also continued to strengthen its presence in four media with a total of 72 press releases (printed and online) and 25 radio/TV/teleradio interview guests; while the promise of social media as an added platform for promotion was further exploited with 187 postings and three webcasts of events gathering engagements in 2001. Meanwhile, in support of the DOST technology transfer program, the institute has completed the formulation of two policies and specifically: 1.

DOST-ITDI Initiatives
DOST-ITDI is actively implementing initiatives in support of this national call to help Marawi rise again after the war. Through the project ITDI Livelihood Program for the Rehabilitation and Reconstruction of Marawi, DOST-ITDI aims to create sustainable livelihoods for the Maranaos through a series of trainings that include technology for personal care products, charcoal briquettes, plant processing and essential oil extraction.
DOST-ITDI Interventions
Rainwater harvesting appears to be one of the most promising alternatives for fresh water supply in the area. One of the speakers also noted that the Philippines offers a great opportunity for nanotechnology entrepreneurs. Mohd Helme Mohd Helan facilitated the visit of the Philippine delegation to the aforementioned nanotechnology facilities.
The first technical meeting for the establishment of the Technical Committee on Nanotechnologies (TC-85) was held last October 26, 2018 at the Advanced Device and Materials Testing Laboratory (ADMATEL), DOST Complex, Taguig City, Metro Manila, Philippines.
Establishment of New NML Facilities
The National Metrology Laboratory (NML) began the implementation of its Five-Year Improvement Program in 2017, which aimed to improve, repair and renew facilities, develop certified reference materials (CRM), further equip staff through training and the ability to provide services. that are internationally recognized.

The Metrology Bill was presented last October at the 3rd DOST S&T Legislative Forum organized by the DOST Department of Legislative Liaison Office (DLLO). NML experts presented the bill to the committee secretaries and legislative officers of the members of the Senate and other invited guests held at PhiVolcs, Quezon City. Last November, NML experts also presented case studies on the importance of the accuracy and reliability of measurements related to health, consumer protection, fair trade and fair legal decisions at the 4th S&T Legislative Forum held in Legazpi City.

In support of the institute's operations, ITDI utilized its human resources with a total number of 329 in December 2018, representing 89.2% of the total plantilla positions. In addition to the total workforce, 131 contract and job order employees were employed to support the fulfillment of the institute's mandates.

HUMAN RESOURCE
The institute continues to provide a conducive environment for its human resource to pursue higher studies and continue to acquire new knowledge and skill sets to enhance competence and enable them to stay abreast with an ever-evolving knowledge - and innovation-driven economy. This year saw a major reform in ITDI's budget structure by grouping its activities and projects under major programs or key strategies. The Institute transitioned from Organizational Performance Indicator Framework (OPIF), an approach whereby agency performance was assessed based on identified Major Final Outputs (MFOs) and Performance Indicators (PIs), to Program Expenditure Classification (PREXC).
In PREXC, performance information and costs are allocated at the program level rather than at the agency and MFO levels.
FINANCIAL
Management
For 2018, ITDI received a total allocation from various funding sources totaling PHP 842.77 million with funds from GAA providing the highest percentage followed by DOST's fund assistance through its Grants-In- Aid (GIA). This year, a grant of PHP 3.02 million was provided by the Department of Energy (DOE) in aid of the project "Characterization/Performance Testing of Biodiesel/Diesel Blends from Combined Feedstock of Different Vegetables and Used Cooking Oils" . Most of the Institute's 2018 GAA or regular budget is attributed to its flagship programs under the PREXC structure, namely the Industrial Technology R&D Program, the Industrial Technology Transfer Program and the Industrial Technology Technical Services Program.
The highest allocation was attributed to the Technical Services Program amounting to PHP 226.35 million (48%) with.
FINANCIAL Management
Disaster Risk Reduction and Management to implement its intervention projects under the Marawi Recovery, Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Program. Compared to the 2017 budget, there is a 42% decrease in budget allocation for MOOE and 39% for CO. Based on the total grants received and commitments made in 2018, the Institute achieved a high utilization rate of 92% which is 1%. reduced to last year's rate.
For 2019, DOST-ITDI will implement eight programs that address the needs of our local industries while at the same time catalyzing their development as the Philippines moves towards Industry 4.0.
