Abstract:
Dawson (2009) suggested a twelve step methodology for implementing knowledge management solutions following research which showed that implementing knowledge management solutions was not as successful as expected. This thesis investigates the third of this twelve step methodology which requires finding a knowledge management solution in the context of the problem. The aim of the research is to determine a methodology that will provide a systematic way for managers to select an appropriate knowledge management tool given a particular working environment.

Abstract:
This thesis describes the development of a Knowledge Management (KM) Assessment tool for the Operational level of the organisation. Its main focus is to help organisations to identify the KM activities and mechanisms that they could improve in order to improve their operational efficiency. Current KM literature is lacking in guiding organisations in what they need to do in order to implement and formalise KM in their operations with a view to improving operational efficiency. Therefore the aim of this thesis is to fill this gap in the literature and also to influence the manner in which KM is

Abstract:
Traditionally, knowledge management tool design has fit into the repository paradigm: a database of stored information that can be queried by an individual seeking information. These tools often rely on two distinct user groups: those who produce the knowledge and those who seek it. The disparity between these two groups - one group benefiting from the other group's work - is a leading cause of a knowledge management tool's failure. Additionally, knowledge management tools fail because the work processes of target users are not fully understood and therefore not addressed in the tool design.

Abstract:
Since the late 1980s there has been a greater awareness of the need to manage organisational knowledge resources, which are seen as vital to the value proposition of any organisation. This has resulted in the development of a multiplicity of Organisational Knowledge Management (OKM) approaches, systems and processes. OKM as a concept is however experiencing a prolonged period of practitioner and academic dissatisfaction, which is impacting its credibility. Commentators claim that this emanates from the fact that a general model, as a diagnostic mechanism for the field, has not yet emerged, an

The twenty-first century is an era where corporate and small businesses alike have to give way to what has been termed the ‘knowledge era’. Knowledge management is regarded as the most important factor in the mainstream of the business fraternity in ensuring sustainability within organisations. Because knowledge management is an integral part of managerial activity in a number of organisations, the broader economic environment and social life today, it is imperative that organisations must be knowledge-driven. Equally important are the associated knowledge management implementation strategies.

Abstract:
Knowledge Management Systems are deployed in organisations of all sizes to support the coordination and control of a range of intellectual assets, and the low cost infrastructures made available by the shift to ‘cloud computing’ looks to only increase the speed and pervasiveness of this move. However, their implementation has not been without its problems, and the development of novel interventions capable of supporting the mundane work of everyday organisational settings has ultimately been limited. A common source of trouble for those formulating such systems is said to be that some proporti

The number of knowledge management tools available on the software market is numerous, making the selection of a suitable tool not as simple as may originally be perceived.

Cette recherche s’inscrit dans l’approche évolutionniste de la firme. A travers ses deux parties, conceptuelle et empirique, nous tentons de combler une lacune dans la littérature consacrée à la mise en œuvre des exigences de la norme ISO 9001, à travers les questions suivantes : la norme est-elle un outil de gestion qui a pour objectifs stratégiques, la conformation des pratiques opérationnelles aux exigences introduites (fonction exploitation des bonnes pratiques/standardisation), et l’exploration de nouvelles connaissances et opportunités (fonction d’innovation)?
