Abstract :
In order to know about the capabilities level of R&D in automotive industry it is essential that organizations always evaluate themselves by a model continuously. In this article, it was tried to identify factors affecting the capability of R&D centers focusing on new products development in automotive industry in the form of structural model. Iran Khodro Company was selected for the case study. To this purpose, first, having a review on the literature, about 200 indicators effective in R & D capabilities and new products development were extracted. Then, of these numbers, 29 indicators which were more important, were selected by industry and academia experts. Then questionnaire was distributed among statistical population. It was used the 410 questionnaires for exploratory factor analysis and 308 questionnaires from the same population randomly for confirmatory factor analysis. Using structural equation modeling and AMOS software, confirmatory factor analysis was conducted and ultimate model with 9 secondary dimensions was confirmed.
