Development and application of information technology in public organizations with the aim of renewal and reform, has taken an increasing speed all over the world. Thereby Iranian government officials have rushed to close the gap created between Iran and other developing countries in the field of information technology. It seems that due to mentioned hastiness, imitation and copying foreign models in terms of institutional and normative, have the greatest impact on Iranian electronic government rather than logical and technical factors. The purpose of this qualitative study is to present a model on factors affecting electronic government’s policies from the formation stage to evaluation, based on the foundations of Civil Service Management law, by content analysis. In this regard 11 open interviews with IT experts were performed. Data analysis was done using software MAXQDA and by open coding process, 19 abstract concepts in the form of 6 main categories were extracted.

abstract: The independence is relative, in spite of separation of powers, in Islamic Republic of Iran. Importantly, mutual support among government agencies is to allow the service to be more provided to the country and also prevent conflicts or illegal rebellions of the institutions against each other. Lack of proper interaction between governmental institutions led to acting and trading, and this is a disaster. The main objective of this paper is to draw the desired pattern of relationships between sovereign institutions within the framework of the constitution. The main criterion which is essential to be considered in the development of relations between institutions of governance is "check and balance". So, the first step is to try to prove the implications of the relationship between sovereign entities in accordance with the constitution using content analysis, and also provide a consensus by using Delphi technique. After condition stipulating in line with the constitution, issues or problems between the sovereign institutions were reviewed to achieve the desired study pattern using approach of focus group and finally a model with greater transparency in the check and balance mechanism of the sovereign institutions on each other was provided.

Automated system for customs data (ASYCUDA) is one of the operating, supervision and control systems in the world customs offices that used to optimize customs clearance functions .This study aims to access the role played by ASYCUDA in organizational learning, employee's technological distinctive competencies and performance in Tehran customs offices. The required information for this research collected by systematic sampling method from Tehran customs offices employees that knew ASYCUDA and the employees of the Iranian customs Statistic and ICT section by using research questionnaire. The collected data from statistic sample was analyzed by Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Modeling methods. Our finding and research model fit indexes show us goodness of fit for the collected data and the research conceptual model. Also our finding shows us the positive influence of ASYCUDA on organizational learning and customs employee's technological distinctive competencies. The positive influence of this system on customs performance is not significant but ASYCUDA affects customs performance via organizational learning.

Many of management theorists describe learning organization as a living and evolutionary system that enhances its performance by acquiring knowledge. "Thinking about future or future building" and "increasing learning capacity" are two key factors that have been emphasized by the authors of learning organizations. In new century, learning is survival for organizations and those organizations that do not make productive learning no longer to be lived.
Managers may have unreal understanding about the amount of learning in their organizations and need a device for measuring the characteristics of learning organizations in it.
This article developed the required indicators for measuring five main characteristics of learning organizations including: leadership, manpower, organizational design, organizational culture and mission/strategy characteristics, and examined content validity, construct validity, convergent validity and discriminate validity of the measurement devices with Delphi, confirmatory factor analysis and variable analysis methods.
The proved indicators in this study formed a questionnaire that may be used for measuring the amount of learning organizations characteristics in different firms and organizations.
