According to studies carried out by divination, Farvkh and Prvbrt found that IT management has identified the following indicators, selection, acquisition, exploitation, conservation and learning. Also look at knowledge management from Nonaka & Takeuchi (1995) has dimensions of acquisition, treatment, internal, operating, creation, storage, external building. Finally, aspects of innovation management is also looking at Yigal and Joel (from the perspective of Park and Kim, 2006) contains 8 elements of strategy, new products, selection of ideas, evaluation of economic / technological, testing and formulation of ideas, the development of a product (or service) test specimen, test and market a commercial building. In fact, the Palma Journal

2 Construction Projects 223 fundamental question of the implementation of development projects, identify the key components of management made substantial performance of the projects and the integration of these components in the form of integrated management system which is to identify strengths and weaknesses in implementing its projects by organization Knowledge-based companies, project management standards: Today's competitive business environment, all organizations are forced to asset management knowledge and technological innovation has made. The importance of the concept of integrated management and integrated management system combining innovative and knowledge-based and technological aspects of the organization will be of particular importance. However, and despite the emphasis in the form of laws and regulations specific expertise, still projects a very low number we face in due course and at the expense of optimum quality and specifications in accordance with the expectations of delivery are what in all common system that can be of these standards in order to continuously improve and enhance the quality of project management by any organization, including government agencies, private or community for any project, regardless of complexity, size or time in this regard, iso and pmbok Nmvdkh time standards have been developed. So these 3 elements combined as a component in the formation of integrated management in service organizations is very important today. According to studies carried out by divination, Farvkh and Prvbrt and found that IT management has identified the following indicators, selection, acquisition, exploitation, conservation and learning. Also look at knowledge management from Nonaka & Takeuchi (1995) has dimensions of acquisition, treatment, internal, operating, creation, storage, external building. Finally, aspects of innovation management is also looking at Yigal and Joel (from the perspective of Park and Kim, 2006) contains 8elements of strategy, new products, selection of ideas, evaluation of economic / technological, testing and formulation of ideas, the development of a product (or service) test specimen, test and market a commercial building. Construction has traditionally lagged behind in adopting strategic management (Hillebrandt et al., 1995; Junnonen, 1998). There are several reasons for this has taken. First, contractors, construction, foundation and base business model is certainly an important obstacle is not having a relatively steady but complex organization temporarily (for example individual projects) inhibits the need for a knowledge based companies over the show. In fact, the fundamental question of the implementation of development projects, identify the key components of management made substantial performance of the projects and the integration of these components in the form of integrated management system which is to identify strengths and weaknesses in implementing its projects by organization review and identify threats and opportunities for environmental review and enforcement of existing competitors and competitive advantage, maximize efficiency of application of development projects to be created. In this study, it is known to the dimensions of knowledge management, innovation management and technology in the context of the formation of the unified management of the organization studied and examined (traditional Damar, horoscope and Prvbrt, 2009) so that the impact of the Integrated Management System performance the study examined development projects. According to studies of development projects ppm Buck (2000) are the 4 steps. This process includes planning, evaluation and development are identified and that each step is a prerequisite for the next step. Thus, in this study the question of the review now Samkv as one of the organizations working knowledge in the field of development projects is the impact of the adoption of integrated management system in the organization and the performance of development projects carried out in the study and examined. The central problem of this research is the answer to this question is that the integrated management system affects the company's performance knowledge-based Samco company in the implementation of development projects, as well as inhibiting factors in implementing these projects what has been the effect of this components of the studied organizations is to what extent? It s needed to deal with the meaning of terms such as system integration before examining unified management system: Integrated management system: It had been attended the implement and apply several managerial systems by continues development of organizations and their trends to implement managerial system in line with organizational aims and based

In other words it s a integrative system which it mix management systems through concentrate on employee, process view and a systematic approach and provide it be putting up the all managerial standard activities in a unique system. Integrated management systems means combine multiple systems in an organization's management and control and manage all of them. The system may not be so obvious to staff but it will be overall a significant effect on the performance of individual members of the organization. Knowledge-based companies: In fact, knowledge is a set of theoretical known, practical skills and human experience. Throughout history, many have, such as land, equipment, hardware, natural resources and information, constituted the essence of human core business. In simple terms, companies today are knowledge of the propertied. It should be borne in mind that any knowledge is useful for the companies. Knowledge must be applied, or so-called experts, is commercialization. The commercialization of knowledge, transforming it from a raw state to a state of market-friendly and market demand. This reduces waste and costs can be compared to similar projects. Project management of civil programs: Project management is a set of tools for planning and directing the project to the objectives goals which are describe based on stakeholder satisfaction and due to three factors: time, quality and cost. At first glance, the tools and methods used in project management redundant, time-consuming and costly, but it should be noted that project management is the only way that can assure you of timely project. Project management of civil programs is a way to make good use of various facilities including humans, machines, construction ideas, civil experts and financing component in order to run a civil project at the right time which should be on first run properly in the productivity manner. (Golabchi, 1389). Project Quality Management: Processes of quality management includes whole activity of project organization which realize responsibilities, goals and policies, quality procedures in order to supply needs that project would be played as one. This process implements quality management system throughout policies, procedures, processes of quality planning, quality assurance and quality control with activities of the continuous improvement process.
