The purpose of this study was to identify and model the effective factors on knowledge management in engineering system organizations based on the combined approach of theme analysis and partial least squares in SEM. In the qualitative phase of this research, using the purposeful method of judgment, the opinions of 12 professors and experts of construction engineering organizations based in Tehran province were colected. Also, in the statistical part of the research and based on the power analysis method, the opinions of 232 experts related to the research topic in all organizations of the country's building engineering system were collected. The process of data analysis was carried out in two stages, which included the identification of effective factors on knowledge management in engineering organizations through interviews and using the method of theme analysis and examining relationships, fitting and validating the research model through questionnaire tools and Structural equation modeling which is a partial least squares approach. The results of the research showed that knowledge management in engineering system organizations is a step-by-step process and includes the five stages of explaining the strategic intent and necessity of knowledge management; communicating and promoting cultural, social and technological capital; analyzing the current needs of the organization in order to determine the best knowledge management method; provision and implementation of knowledge management with clearly defined procedures and resources; evaluation and continuous monitoring of the implementation of new knowledge management and reform has been formed.
