Whole systems and mechanism were established for managing research in the upstream, midstream and downstream sections were involved in this research to develop 16 targeted groups in Nakhonsithammarat and Songkhla, and to improve their own potential. This study revealed that the research process for spatial development which affects on the production and the research results that can meet our needs, is appeared from upstream emphasizing with research design, framework determine and development of coordinated research with community, including the financial contraction mechanism for provision fund required in this research. Midstream management supports early fund provided researchers on research process in order to provide the most effective and efficient research, experts selection for the performance appraisal, research results transmission, additional activities of skill development during research operating and coordination with network partners to support researchers.
