The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of three components of transaction costs including uncertainty, specific assets and frequency on outsourcing and also to investigate the specific assets and uncertainty on open innovation abroad among banking financial technology companies based in Tehran. The research method was descriptive-correlational, based on which the required information was collected randomly among 123 managers of technology companies by compiling and distributing a researcher-made questionnaire. The results of the analysis of research data with the help of structural equation modeling technique and partial least squares approach show that the increase of specific assets reduces outsourcing and increases the export of open innovation. Rising uncertainty reduces outsourcing and increases open export exports. Increasing the frequency of exchanges also reduces outsourcing.

Uncertainty is inherent and inevitable component of projects. Research literature suggests that Information Technology (IT)projects and, in particular, outsourcing of these projects are at high risk. Therefore, according to the importance of this field, this study aimed to identify and prioritize the risks of outsourcing IT projects. Initially, by reviewing the research, a list of identified criteria was provided to the company's experts. Then, the criteria were selected after the scrutiny case study and according to the experts' opinion with the fuzzy Delphi method. In the next step, based on SWARA method, the final weights of the criteria were obtained. Also, after reviewing the literature, a list of important risks for outsourcing IT projects was identified. Then, for the prioritization of the identified risks, ARAS gray method was used. The results showed that the criterion of sharing knowledge and experience as the most important criterion and loss of resources of competitive advantage was identified as the most important risk.
