In today's fast-paced and highly uncertain environment where customer needs, technology, employee needs, community status, monetary systems, geographic location and everything are changing, companies cannot always rely on the production and supply of their existing products. A new product development strategy is an important activity that helps companies stay alive and make continuous improvements. However, most organizations consider these factors static and disregard these dynamics. Since the relationship between the factors contributing to the success of new product development has many dynamics and feedbacks, the systems dynamics tool is a useful tool to analyze in this area. In this research, in order to identify and analyze the dynamics of the factors affecting the success of a new product development, based on the theoretical background and opinions of industry experts, key variables in the field of new product development have been identified and the causal relationships between these variables are outlined. Accordingly, the system simulated in Tejarat Bank from 1392 to 1404. The results of the simulation and review show that considering the considered policies optimizes the new product development of regulatory financial products in the aforementioned organization.

Today, advanced technologies are considered as one of the most vital components of business, industry and services and a strategic factor for the economic development of countries. Some researchers consider advanced technologies as the heart of wealth generation in the organizations, and it is almost impossible to provide competitive products and services in a global environment without using the required advanced technologies. Given the importance and the role of technology, especially advanced technologies, in creating competitive advantage for organizations, one of the key issues regarding such technologies is acquisition and the acquisition method. This qualitative research, by adopting a risk analysis and management approach in the field of technology acquisition, seeks to explore a conceptual model of the acquisition of advanced technologies for the Information Technology (IT) industry using Grounded Theory. To collect data, 15 semi-structured interviews were conducted with the experts in the field of IT and technology management and acquisition. The sampling was performed using judgment and snowball techniques. Data analysis was done using MAXQDA10 software which resulted in the emergence of 105 concepts and codes, 23 sub-categories, and 5 main categories. This article aims to achieve a conceptual model of advanced technology acquisition with emphasis on information technology analysis and risk management, taking into account the environmental conditions prevailing in the country's information technology industry. The proposed conceptual model was developed with emerging design approach and the results of the research were explained as theoretical propositions.
