Summary

Knowledge capture may be either internal or external knowledge in any form (for example, tacit know-how or explicit technical information). Capture processes should consider the life cycle and may need to address factors such as media, format, speed, costs, volume and intellectual property issues. Capture may also need to include alternatives for source capture and guidelines for hard copy publication (to enable subsequent imaging), preservation of historical documents, as well as standards and quality control procedures.

Description

After having identified key knowledge and sources of knowledge, the next step is to formulate procedures to capture them. Capture is related to processes that bring data and information into a knowledge system. The processes will consider the KM life cycle and should address factors such as media, format, speed, costs, volume and intellectual property issues. They should also include alternatives for source capture and guidelines for hardcopy publication, preservation of historical documents, standards and quality control procedures. This stage of the process includes two groups of activities; the first being the capture of tacit knowledge and the second involving the capture of explicit knowledge.

Description

More than ever before, organizations need to find ways to capture employee knowledge and best practices and ensure that they are shared and used throughout the workplace. To achieve this, organizations must uncover and address the gaps between their goals and their current knowledge-transfer practices. New tools and technologies must be supported with process and cultural changes and populated with high-quality structured content. A complete solution requires:

  • effective architectures, techniques, and standards for organizing and presenting content effectively;
  • new skills to help personnel understand what knowledge to capture, and how to document it, in order to maximize its usefulness to others;
  • revised goals and expectations that make knowledge capture a high-priority in everyone's job;
  • efficient systems and tools that centralize knowledge content and make it easy to store, access, and maintain.
