| Summary: | The protection, safety and security (PSS) of complex objectives have become managerial subjects for aspects such as guarantee, growth and development. These aspects are marked by intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The present paper approaches the analysis of the current state in the PSS field through a case study with reference to the situation of small modular reactor (SMR) investments, which officially entered the application agenda for the first time in Romania and in the European Union (EU). The main object of the research aims at the perception scale of integrated PSS, using the method of interviewing decision-makers and researching the factorial structure of the centrality items of PSS activities in SMRs. The central view of this article is to conceptually delimit integrated PSS, their operationalization to complex objectives, and, respectively, their management in the context of research on the analysis and development directions registered nationally and internationally in the field. Derived from this approach, we defined secondary objectives as follows: to highlight the achievements in the field that contribute to ensuring the functioning of complex industrial objectives; to characterize energy demands in the context of the increasing phenomenon of globalization, technological transfer and knowledge; and to establish the framework for evaluating integrated PSS that have a preventive, safe and feasible contribution in the new economy.
