Supply chain knowledge management is one of the most important competitive resources for any organization and companies that apply knowledge faster will be more successful in the competitive market. Hence, in this research, the measurement of supply chain knowledge management in line with the performance of strategic supply chain is discussed with emphasis on the role of entrepreneurial bricolage and operational ambivalence.

The current research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-survey in terms of nature and method. The statistical population of this research included 1000 employees of small and medium companies in Kermanshah province, 278 of whom were selected using Morgan's table. The research data was collected through a questionnaire and the validity and reliability of the variables were confirmed with the help of convergent and divergent validity and reliability. Structural equation modeling was also used for data analysis.

The results of the hypotheses indicated that supply chain knowledge management on strategic supply chain performance; Entrepreneurial bricolage and operational ambidexterity respectively have a strong, direct and meaningful impact; Strong, direct and indirect and meaningful impact; It has a strong, direct and significant effect, entrepreneurial bricolage has a moderate, direct and significant effect on operational ambivalence, and operational ambivalence has a strong, direct and significant effect on strategic supply chain performance.

Today, digital transformation has caused changes in the business environment through the emergence and development of new technologies, while changing the needs of customers. In this context, disruptive innovation as one of the most critical factors that ensure the success of companies in the markets has been noticed by entrepreneurial managers. Due to the lack of studies, in this research, the impact of entrepreneurial orientation(EO) and digitalization strategy(DS) on disruptive innovation(DI) has been investigated.

The current applied research is descriptive-survey in terms of its nature and method. The researchers focused on the managers of production companies in Tehran as the statistical population of the study. The sample size was calculated with G-Power version 3 software, 313 people. Data were collected by non-random sampling method, and using a standard 33-question questionnaire with online survey. To assess the reliability and validity, and model fit, confirmatory factor analysis was used. Hypotheses were also tested with structural equation modeling technique and using Amos version 24 software.

The results showed that EO has a positive and significant effect on DI. Also, the strengthening role of DS as a mediator, and the weakening role of this variable as a moderator was also confirmed in this relation.

Depending on the level of EO of companies, DS can be considered as a lever or a cage for DI. In this context, the implementation of any level of DS should be calibrated based on the level of EO of managers on DI, in order to prevent the creation of a strategic cage that can limit innovation.

In the current changing and changing conditions, it is inevitable to adopt innovation and digital transformation in the field of public services. For this reason, in this research, the critical success factors of innovation and digital transformation in the public services of government organizations were identified and explained.

In terms of its purpose, the current research is an applied research with a mixed approach, and in the first stage, the qualitative method of the focus group and in the second stage, the quantitative survey method were used. The data collection tools included semi-structured interviews in the first stage and questionnaires in the second stage. In the first step, by using the purposeful sampling method and conducting expert interviews, dimensions, components and related indicators were extracted, and in the next step, by using stratified sampling, the opinions of 25 people regarding the dimensions and components of the first step were used. The validity and reliability of the research tool was confirmed through discriminant validity (Fornell and Larcker) and composite reliability.

The final propositions of the research were classified into three "key, unifying and macro" categories using the King and Harrocks coding method and the inductive approach. According to the research findings, out of 157 initial statements, 84 key categories; 29 integrative categories and 5 overarching categories were extracted and in the second phase, all the integrative and overarching categories were confirmed from the perspective of experts.

According to the results of the present research, innovation and digital transformation in public services in public organizations leads to better progress of the affairs and mutual relations of organizations with different stakeholders, which can ultimately create the potential of transformation, optimal management, excellence and improvement in public services.

In todays management world, knowledge-based development has been considered as a central strategy and policy in most countries of the world. In this strategy, knowledge-based companies are considered a vital and key element as the driving engine of development. Therefore, the current research aims to provide solutions for the growth and development of these companies by identifying the obstacles to the development of knowledge-based companies with a management policy approach.

The current research is an applied research with a descriptive and exploratory approach. In terms of the method of data collection, this research has a mixed nature, and in terms of research philosophy, it has a comparative and inductive approach. The statistical population of the research included experts who were selected based on the principle of theoretical adequacy in the number of 30 people using the snowball sampling method. Data collection was done in the quantitative part through questionnaires and in the qualitative part with the help of interviews. In the first stage, the obstacles and solutions to the development of knowledge-based companies were identified through interviewsand content analysis and coding methods, and in the next stage, the aforementioned factors were prioritized using the fuzzy Delphi method. Validity and reliability of the collection tool were confirmed in the qualitative part by content method and theoretical validity and reliability of two coders. Also, the validity and reliability of the data collection tool were confirmed in the quantitative section with the help of content validity and retest reliability.

The results showed that the lack of financial resources with proportional profits even in the Innovation and Prosperity Fund and the delay in financing the contracts signed with the government are the most importantobstacles to the development of knowledge-based companies as well as the development of financial resources, especially the facilities of the Innovation and Prosperity and Development Fund. The export-oriented approach is the most important solution to overcome the obstacles of knowledge-based companies.

Based on the findings and by specifying a set of factors that are considered obstacles to the growth and development of knowledge-based companies and the consolidation of the knowledge-based economy, along withproviding solutions to remove these obstacles, policymakers and policy makers can deal with the main concerns of managers and knowledge-based companies. Get to know in advance and act more precisely in the direction of thedevelopment of these companies.
