Although equipment, financial, and human resources are known among the most important factors in order to evaluate the rate of R&D departments' ability, all of these factors along with procedural and managerial weakness cannot provide value for corporation. In order to investigate more about this aspect of R&D projects, case study was adopted as our research method.
