Patterns of trade have become traditional. Thus, the purpose study is to present a conceptual model of the electronic supply chain based on cloud computing in the Iranian construction industry. The research method in this study is descriptive-correlational and analysis of the variance-covariance matrix. This research has been done in the form of libraries and fields. Thus, first, the literature libraries of the "electronic supply chain based on cloud computing", research background and theories on the subject were conducted, and after identifying the indicators, a questionnaire was distributed among the experts of companies active in the construction industry and a questionnaire was distributed. Finally, using the structural equation modeling method, the proposed conceptual model of the research was analyzed. Based on the structural equation modeling findings, in the companies active in the construction industry, "Cost Effectiveness (CEP)", "Delivery (DP)", "Quality (QP)", "Customer Relationship (CRP)", "Integration" (IP) "," Technology (TP) "," Flexibility (FP) "," Stability (S) "," Environmental Intelligence (IE) "," Ease of Access (EA) "and" Tactical Advantage (TA) " on "Electronic supply chain based on cloud computing in Iran's construction industry" has a positive and significant effect.

The current research is descriptive, exploratory and applied, and qualitative and quantitative (mixed) research methods were used. In the qualitative part, the Delphi technique and the consensus of 7 executive and academic experts were used, who were selected by a targeted and snowball method. In the quantitative part, confirmatory factor analysis was used, and a questionnaire was distributed and analyzed among 65 experts of entrepreneurial construction projects as random sampling. Also, the reliability of the questionnaire was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha coefficient, and the content and construct validity were also checked. The results showed that the crowdsourcing model of entrepreneurial projects includes eight main categories, which are "project characteristics", "culture", "the role of the government and supervisory institutions", "campaign and marketing information methods", "investor characteristics", "spatial and geographical characteristics". ", "Features of the financial market" and "Features of executives and founders". According to the findings of the research, it is suggested that each of the executives, investors, government and supervisory institutions should cooperate in the design of crowdfunding platforms, because the lack of a suitable, safe and professional platform in this field is strongly felt in the Iranian market. will be Since Iran is full of intellectual and innovative graduates and includes the growth of entrepreneurship, and of course the economic and financial problems hinder the implementation of the creative ideas of young people, the existence of a crowdfunding platform and the necessary ...

Considering the importance of project supply chain management, different models have been offered by developed countries, but according to the difference development models between the developed, developing countries, the characteristics of the supply chain management of these countries are very different. This study aimed at developing a conceptual model of project based construction industry in Iran to compare the structure of project supply chain management with existing challenges in project supply chain. Using construction theory the casual conditions of emerging of challenges infrastructure elements were indentified and the procedures of challenging management and its expected results were presented.

The special feature of international construction contracts justifies the need to develop standard methods and international dispute resolution procedures. Therefore, the evolution of dispute resolution mechanisms in international construction projects and the protection of the economic interests of the parties are among the most important concerns of both sides of the construction contract, which is foreseen by the International Union of Consulting Engineers in the sample contracts. The goal is how Fidic has been able to manage it by adopting multi-layered methods to prevent disputes or in the event of disputes.Method: In this research, the descriptive-analytical method was used and the library method was chosen as the method of collecting information and materials.Finding and Conclusion: The findings of the research show that Fidic has tried to be an effective mechanism for quick dispute resolution by providing multi-layer models in sample contracts in terms of the agreement of the parties in choosing one of the dispute resolution methods; But this procedure will be valid only if the parties act in good faith and are willing to implement the decisions made voluntarily.

In the qualitative stage, 1 construction industry expert was selected based on snowball sampling method and to identify the main components and indices, questionnaire design and semi-structured interview model design and focus groups were discussed. Then the indices were identified and summarized in MAXQDA software by open and axial coding of the indices. Later on, the indices were approved by the experts finally using Delphi method, and the final framework of the model was formed using selective coding in the next stage. In the quantitative section, a questionnaire was developed using qualitative method results to validate the model, which had 64 indices and 11 components were distributed among 70 builders in Tehran and mass builders of the construction industry with family businesses active at international level and had entrepreneurship history. Data was analyzed using partial least squares regression (PLS). The most significant results were that the path coefficients between government support (0.242), effective strategy (0.223), competitive advantage (0.256) and market identification (0.497) with internationalization variables were confirmed at a significant level above 1.96.
