In this research some of impressive indices of absorption capacity are specified. In addition the most effective indices in creation of value from foreign technology and using probable opportunities are identified. Literature review, expert opinion considering and growing ideas theorem leads us to a classification for absorption capacity dimensions and finally with a gradual correction, a conceptual model is developed. Based upon basic model, a questionnaire designed with 29 questions and 600 of them distributed in target society. 267 questionnaires returned and the results with Exploratory Function Analysis (EFA) surveyed. In the first step, results showed that there are 9 fundamental factors which consist of 29 main elements and 1 fundamental factor added by using the model which designed with literature review. In the second step, 10 elements of first step had been included in 5 factors. Structural model of equations considered for both two steps. Outcomes confirm the first extracted model. The most important factors specified, are respectively: Maintenance 0.84, Exploring 0.55, interactional competence 0.46, internal capacities 0.35 and evolution 0.21. All of these factors could be an underlay for strategies decisions of Iran.
