The purpose of this study is investigating the effect of supply chain drivers on Qazvin manufacturing companies’ supply chain integration and company performance. The organizational culture has been used as a moderating factor in this relation. The study has 6 hypotheses in which data are gathered with questionnaire form 79 supply chain managers, as required sample, using structural equation model with the partial least square analyzed. The findings revealed that internal drivers have positive impact on supply chain integration. Also none of the dimensions of external drivers have positive impact on integration. As the results show, organizational culture mediates the relation between external drivers and supply chain integration, but does not mediate the relation between internal drivers and integration. Eventually, supply chain integration has a positive and significant impact on company financial and operational performance. The results of this study provide a comprehensive understanding to supply chain managers and lead them to identify effective factors on supply chain integration and improving company performance

Iranian managers in public organizations are generally motivated to introduce suggestion schemes in their organizations, which is also supported by laws and regulations. However our knowledge of key success factors is limited in terms of quality and quantity of previous research efforts. To fill the gap, this study adopting a survey methodology with a random sample of employees in public offices and organizations of Iran, investigated factors with a potential affect on the successful introduction of suggestion systems in the organizations. We were especially interested to investigate the role of organization mission (industrial vs. non-industrial), as the adoption of suggestion systems has been relatively in industrial organizations. Research results show that organization mission through intermediating variables such as leadership style, organizational culture, organizational structure and processes have indeed statistically meaningful effect on the success of suggestion systems. Based on the results of the research, a readiness assessment model is proposed and recommendations are made for application and further research. Key words:
