Complex products and systems have a vital and growing role to play in the development of new technologies, technological development, and the advancement of the modern economy, forming a competitive advantage in developed and developing countries. The focus of manufacturing these products is on design, project management, system engineering and system integration. Knowledge integration capability, as the key capability of system integration, directly affects innovation capability, understanding of competitive opportunities, timely response to the dynamic environment and strategic performance of the organization. The aim of this study is to present an appropriate model for knowledge integration in the production and development projects of complex products and systems. For this purpose, a mixed qualitative and quantitative research method has been used for data analysis. In qualitative part, thematic analysis method was used and 277 basic themes, 27 organizing themes and finally 5 global themes have been extracted. In quantitative part, Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) method was used to determine relationships between main factors and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on partial least squares (PLS) were used to test the statistical model. Research results show that the success of knowledge integration of complex products and systems is in relation to four underlying factors including Environmental factors, Product specifications and technology, Requirements and organizational contexts and Knowledge development strategy, network structure and processes. Results of this study can be applied to manage national projects of complex products and systems in development and commercialization phases such as rail and air transport, power plant and refinery projects where there are numerous contractors.
