This study aims to identify Critical Success Factors (CSFs) in implementation of Enterprise Resource
Planning (ERP) systems that are effective on organization success. While scholars have tried to apply concepts
such as Change Management (CM), Knowledge Management (KM) and Innovation Management (IM) to offer
solutions to overcome challenges in implementing ERP systems, the Transfer aspect of ERP implementation
has been lessdeveloped; transfer from a developer company (vendor) to a receiver company. Hence, we have
summarized our identified effective measures in ERP implementation and Technology Transfer (TT) into a
questionnaire that was distributed among managers and experts of four Iranian large companies and their ERP
vendors. Results from Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) shows that following five main factors are effective
on ERP implementation success: Culture, Organizational Structure, Project Management, Support Activities
and Training Issues and the Interaction between Transferor and Transferee. Furthermore, effect of each main
factor on organization success has been calculated by Pearson method.
Key words: EFA , ERP implementation, organization success, technology transfer, , ,
