Strategies for developing the technological capabilities of aircraft manufacturing based on successful global experiences (Civilian - Military Industry Integration Approach)

The development of technological capabilities is a tools of industrial progress of countries, and each country adopts strategies for the development of technological capabilities according to its requirements. Considering the existence of a window of opportunity for demand in the aviation sector of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in this article we are trying to identify the strategies that led to the progress of that company by studying a successful global experience (Boeing Company) and using the research method "Importance–Performance Analysis", we want to make operational proposals for Iran's aviation industry. For this purpose, we first analyzed Boeing company and extracted its strategies through documentary studies and in the next step, through a survey of experts, we improved the accuracy and quality of the identified strategies and in Finally, we analyzed the identified strategies using the survey and the "Importance-Performance Analysis" (IPA) method. The findings show that all the identified strategies are of high importance, but two strategies "designing a suitable playground by the government and creating alignment between commercial and military activities" and "learning strategy and accumulation of capabilities for complex product design and development" have more priority than other strategies.
