Iran’s industry has had a considerable number of difficulties to perform so well as was expected in the post – revolutionary era.
Unfavorable legal, political environments combined with eight –year imposed war may be singled out as the root causes of such performances.
However, this paper argues that our industry’s lack of realization of its dire need to adapt to the emerging unprecedented environmental challenges is an even more important cause of our industry’s plight. The possibilities of committing our industry to the five disciplines, which are grounded in relevant national cultures, the cultural characteristics, which might curb adoption of the five learning disciplines are explained. Some external as well as internal conditions or prerequisites which must be, met before the five disciplines are activated or operational, are reviewed.

In this research, after a brief introduction, different information systems, classification of various methodologies, Object –Oriented view and methodology will be discussed in detail. Then we will design a mechanized information system for purchase activities (including domestic and international purchase). The purchase division of one of the leading automakers (Sazeh Ghostar Saipa Company) was selected for the case study. The division is a good example of a purchase system because of the nature of its activity which is engineering design as well as provision of the parts. At end of this article, using a questionnaire, Object-Oriented Methodology will be compared to Structured Methodology (SSADM) from technical, usage, and management points of view and then the results will be analyzed.

The prime objectives of Project Management are to minimize time and cost and to meet required performance. Value Engineering is an organized effort to attain optimum value in a system by providing the necessary functions to improve performance at the lowest cost. Value Engineering can contribute to the field of project management to achieve its objectives.
This paper explains a model of service project management with the aid of value Engineering.
