KM Systems in practice
1. Enterprise-wide knowledge management systems
 General-purpose firm-wide efforts to collect, store,
distribute, and apply digital content and knowledge
2. Knowledge work systems (KWS)
 Specialized systems built for engineers, scientists, other
knowledge workers charged with discovering and creating
new knowledge
3. Intelligent techniques
 Diverse group of techniques such as data mining used for
various goals: discovering knowledge, distilling knowledge,
discovering optimal solutions
Content Management
Network
Management
 a database of firm
experts, as well as
accepted solutions to
known problems
 facilitates the
communication
between employees
looking for knowledge
and experts who have
that knowledge.
KM Work System
Case based
reasoning
• Represents
knowledge as
a database of
past cases and
their solutions.
Learning organization & KM
 People continually expand their capacity to
create the results they truly desire
 New and expansive patterns of thinking are
nurtured
 Collective aspiration is set free
 People are continually learning how to learn
together
 KM is the foundation of learning organization
