Abstract: (2946 Views)
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to develop a model for the successful implementation of public policy in state-owned, project-based oil companies in Iran.
Methodology: This research was a qualitative study in terms of methodology. Also, since it intended to provide a model for the implementation of public policies in such companies in Iran, it was considered to be an exploratory research. The statistical population of the study included senior managers of Iranian state project-oriented companies active in the field of oil and gas as well as university professors in the field of policy-making. The size of the research sample was determined by snowball method and interview was used to collect the required data.
Findings: Results show that successful implementation of public policy can be measured in the light of such criteria as efficiency, effectiveness, meeting expectations, adequacy in problem solving, justice distribution, and adaptation to the conditions of the oil industry.
Value: According to the acquired framework, three clusters of variables were identified under the headings of causal, intervening, and underlying factors, which strongly influence the successful implementation of public policies.
Implications: The acquired framework indicates that the successful implementation of public policies leads to increased public trust and satisfaction as well as promotion of corporate legitimacy among stakeholders.
