Introduction of a knowledge information system in a SME, "skill matrix" as pilot scheme

Abstract

The procedure model WISKI (S)PUR1 was developed within the cooperation project EWISU2 between the institute AIFB3 (http://www.aifb.unikarlsruhe.de) and the company ISB AG Karlsruhe (http://www.isb-ag.de). With it you will be able to introduce a knowledge information system (WIS) into a company successfully and also you will be able to use this WIS successfully. The procedure model serves the support of the introduction of a WIS into a company or an organization. WISKI (S)PUR offers a framework for the efficient and actual establishment of a company's specific knowledge information system. Furthermore, a phase model was developed for the introduction of a WIS into a company, as the case may be for the accomplishment of knowledge projects; WISKI (S)PUR is reflected in it. These both models are validated and are verified by knowledge projects in the ISB AG. The introduction of a Skill Matrix was selected as the pilot scheme on the basis of the need in the ISB AG. The generation and utilization of synergies by the implentation and combination of two further completed knowledge projects with the Skill Matrix will be described briefly in this paper. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
