Knowledge management (KM) refers to a range of practices used by organizations to identify, create, represent, and distribute knowledge for reuse and learning across the organization, to improve performance, gain competitive advantage, and grow innovation.
The need for Knowledge Management:
Some of the most common reasons that makes having a knowledge management solution imperative:
- Volumes of unorganized unsearchable knowledge.
- Knowledge transfer is time consuming.
- Email overload due to knowledge transfer by email.
- Secure sharing of sensitive knowledge among limited people
- Loss of knowledge when people leave or hardware devices fail.
- Ongoing security and backup of knowledge.
