Abstract (2. Language): 
Being multifaceted process, implementing customer relationship management (CRM) project has a high risk and uncertainty that must be reduced using planning to get the desirable benefits. As a matter of fact, existing and optimal position must be determined to reduce the gap between them via suitable investment.
