Abstract

The objective of this research is to identify the dimensions and contextual components that impact the lack of knowledge management implementation in the southern oil-rich regions. Training, management, culture, organizational structure and technology used, and the knowledge process are examples of organizational capabilities that should be assessed and developed within the framework of knowledge management in the oil-rich region company sector. The qualitative section used the meta-synthesis method to infer the model. Initially, the research literature was reviewed to determine the factors influencing the lack of knowledge management implementation. Subsequently, the Delphi method was used to gather the opinions of experts and specialists regarding these factors. The statistical population included studies in the form of articles from 2016 to 2024, focusing on components influencing the learning culture, searched with determined keywords in reputable internal scientific databases such as Noormags, Magiran, Civilica, Ganj, Elmnet, and external databases like Eric, Science Direct, UET, and Google Scholar. In total, 260 studies were reviewed, and after several stages of review and screening, 120 articles were selected. The research data analysis was performed using inferential analysis methods in the form of coding, and factor analysis of the questionnaire questions was conducted using SPSS statistical analysis software. The research findings in open coding extracted 128 components of knowledge management non-implementation, which were divided into five categories in axial coding: acquisition, creation, transfer, storage, and application of knowledge. Additionally, the results of the selective coding phase classified the obtained components into knowledge, individual, and organizational barriers. Based on the characteristics and barriers to knowledge management implementation, this research categorized them into three areas, which can be used in designing barriers to knowledge management implementation aimed at fostering and developing tacit knowledge in the southern oil-rich regions.
