Compilation of the feasibility model of Iran's strategic plans )studied in the city of Shahrekord)Abstract:The current research is based on the practical goal of development and the method of its implementation is descriptive and analytical, and it is in the category of qualitative research, the idea of developing a model of the realization of Iran's strategic plans is based on determining the success rate of the realization of the following program in the review of the evaluation system of criteria and achieving goals in advance is determined to be of interest. Therefore, the aim of this research is to compile criteria and indicators of realizability. According to the data theory, the foundation is in the form of a pilot in the city of Shahrekord. In this way, if this model is to be presented in the city of Shahrekord, what characteristics should it have? In this part, by using the method of systematic grounded theory, collecting textual data, interviewing knowledgeable people in both research and executive fields, and analyzing the data, a wide range of effective factors in Application and implementation of this approach in the form of 22 main categories. And 129 subcategories and relationships between them have been identified. The achievement of this research is the identification of development indicators for the realization of urban plans, as well as the evaluation, ranking, analysis and evaluation and providing a particularly desirable model. With regard to the findings regarding the feasibility of the optimal model plan of Shahrekord city, it was determined that the development of participation, improvement of municipal performance and sustainable urban development are among the components of the feasibility of urban development plans.

This paper considers the distance between the present situation (present management of Mashhad) and optimum situation (urban strategic management) as a fundamental concern, and then conveys the theoretical basis related to strategy paradigm and strategic management. It, with the help of SWOT[1] model, identifies weakens, strengths, opportunities, and threats existed in metropolis Mashhad for strategic management of this city. It suggests suitable management for stable management in this city. Priority is one of topics is followed. The method of this paper is descriptive and analytical so that the required information (weakens, strengths, opportunities, and threats) is gathered by urban experts (21 experts) and citizens (384 citizens). In the process of analysis of strategic management of Mashhad metropolis, we used internal factor evaluation matrix (IFE)[2], External factor evaluation matrix (EFE)[3], Internal-External matrix (IE)[4] and Quantitative strategic planning matrix (QSPM)[5]. The findings show that the strategic management in Mashhad metropolis doesn't have a suitable place. If urban management wants to start its move toward an urban strategic management, it should prefer the strategies of defending group (Weakness& Threat (WT)[6] based on the decrease of weak points and the avoid of threats. They are as follows:
1- Solving problems and daily urban crises
2- Increase of synergy urban management
3- Keep the stability of urban systems instead of its evolution
