  7. Abstract:
  8. New century came with changes in a series of global macro trends, especially a greater dispersion of knowledge, which undermines the effectiveness of innovation based on internal R&D. Many of successful organizations responded to this problem by opening their borders to exchange ideas and make cooperation with external actors in their innovation activities, which is known as "open innovation". Innovation in the defense industry, which always deals with challenges to keep its readiness alive, is traditionally based on internal R&D. These industries, as well as civilian industries, face the new macro trends including budget cut and knowledge dispersion, which reduces the effectiveness of their internal R&D for innovation. The defense industry in united states of America, England and many other armies all around the world are moving toward open innovation. Our country's defense industry inevitably has to step in this road to confront the rising challenges. But there is no trace of an open innovation model for the defense industry in academic literature. Based on innovation literature and experts’ experiences, the present study was designed to develop a framework to measure innovation openness in the defense industry. This framework can be used to map defense industry innovation projects onto openness spectrum, thus help us to draw the way to more openness. Primarily, a preliminary framework based on innovation literature was presented to defense industry experts, and their critics and suggestions were captured during interviews. Using experts’ opinions and by reviewing the literature again, the final framework, accepted by experts and consistent with the literature, was developed. The final result is a three-dimension framework which measures openness of defense innovation at project or organization level
