The role of Information Systems in Knowledge Management

Information Systems (IS) are used as an enabler for better Knowledge Management. The specific technologies that are typically used are:

  • Email
  • Internet/Intranet sites
  • Enterprise and Business Portals
  • Document Management Systems
  • Workflow solutions
  • Databases, Data Warehouses and Data Mining
  • Any application or system that helps users to work with information

Companies typically already have around 80% of the infrastructure (networks, PC’s, email, etc.) that is required for Knowledge Management. Focus is needed on the last 20% in order to fully obtain the true value of their IS investment.
