Dynamic capabilities refer to an organization's responding ways to the environmental rapid changes. Methodology: It is necessary to study on the organizational dynamic capabilities for two reasons: studying the organization's activities in crisis times, and the concentration of the present management science on "knowledge management" as an important determining factor of vocational excellence and competitive advantage. Results: Our motive to prepare this paper is to respond to the question that if knowledge management plays a role in improving the organization's dynamic capabilities and as a result, increasing vocational excellence and competitive advantage? Conclusion: In this research, the set of hypotheses were studied and examined based on regression model on a number of governmental companies and at the end, results showed that organizational internal and external knowledge management elevates dynamic capabilities by information technology markedly.References
