Over the years SSD has achieved significant breakthroughs in developing and demonstrating replicable technology packages and field models in several sectors with involvement of its partners S&T based field groups and S&T institutions. Important proven and sustainable models/packages having potential for large-scale replication at the grass root levels are as under:-

• Replication of 10 technology models developed
  through SSD by line function departments (CAPART, Women and ChildDevelopment) and UN-agencies (APCTT).

• Special food security programme
  for Jarwas/Onges in A&N islands.

• Waste management for value addition & income generation to
  SC community.

• Replication of Ten Rural Technologies

• Setting up of three Women Technology Parks and four Rural Technology Parks.

• No. of Horticultural Processing Units Managed By Women

• Development Of Solar Photovoltaic Based electronic milk tester

• Development of modified filature for silk spinning.
