2.4. DRAW A TECHNOLOGY MAP In this step, the technology map is taken into account with regard to the component of the importance of technology as the horizontal axis (vector x) and the component of the technological gap as the vertical axis (vector y). Gaining a relatively high value in the component of the importance of technology for a particular technology suggests that the acquisition of this technology by the company is inherently competitive and, in addition to creating opportunity, avoids threats such as dependency on the source. Also, the relative value of the technology gap is considered to be the weak point in the technology [5]. The purpose of drawing up a technology map for the technology of designing and building a power plant in Karkheh Power Generation Company is to show the technological status of the company in each technology (strengths and weaknesses) and identify key technologies and determine the competitive position of each technology in comparison with other technologies. The survey (opportunities and threats) is shown in Figure 1 After determining these; we can adopt a suitable development strategy for the development and acquisition of each technology in the company.
