The statistical population includes managers, experts, and scholars in the field of the study.</p> <p><strong>Findings:</strong> According to the perspectives of the statistical population, for the implementation of the BABCS system in the public organizations of the Kurdistan region, seven categories of factors are influential, including organizational-behavioral, technical, economic, design and execution, legal, external, and policy factors. The assessment of these factors in the current situation revealed that only the "legal factors" are relatively adequate, thus indicating that the conditions for implementing BABCS in public organizations of the Kurdistan region are not optimal.
