Management and executive category (with five sub-categories), support and advocacy (with two sub-categories), cultural and social (with three subcategories) and transportation design and development (with three subclasses of information) derived. The central class was the model of the necessity of having a leading organization. In the fifth stage, the final model of factors affecting the establishment of zero prospects in Iran.
