what is knowledge management? • Knowledge management is . . . • systematic process by which knowledge is created, captured, shared, and leveraged • driven by: • organizational objectives • need to share and identify trends • IT tools • search, analysis, and presentation • serves one or many end-users Richard W. Morris, PhD NIAID/DAIT rmorris@niaid.nih.gov 301-594-7634
what is value? • Qualities that make information valuable: • accuracy • timeliness • accessibility • engagement • application • rarity • Source:Davenport & Prusak (1997) Richard W. Morris, PhD NIAID/DAIT rmorris@niaid.nih.gov 301-594-7634

pilot A • VISION: reduce review workload • reviewer selection • conflict elimination • proposal assignment • BARRIER: relevance • ACTION: mediated retrieval Richard W. Morris, PhD NIAID/DAIT rmorris@niaid.nih.gov 301-594-7634
pilot B • VISION: better clinical decisions • legacy data • many, distributed projects • multidisciplinary analysis • BARRIER: nomenclature diffs • ACTION: robust data models Star Schema Data Model Richard W. Morris, PhD NIAID/DAIT rmorris@niaid.nih.gov 301-594-7634
pilot C • VISION: timely program planning • emerging research trends • relation of novelty to score • BARRIER: discerning salience, • signal-to-noise ratio • e.g., “naked” DNA • ACTION: bibliometrics Richard W. Morris, PhD NIAID/DAIT rmorris@niaid.nih.gov 301-594-7634
lessons learned: world bank • World Bank Group Ranks 4th in Most Admired Knowledge Enterprises • Organization: • multiple knowledge flows • communities of practice • redefine end-user relations (partners) • Budget for knowledge communities • Technologies for capture, dissemination, re-use • Build permanent capacity for knowledge brokering, e.g., advisory services, help desks The KNOW Network is a group of leading knowledge-based organizations dedicated to benchmarking and sharing best knowledge practices leading to superior business performance. www.knowledgebusiness.com Richard W.

next steps • assess & develop a strategy • start pilot projects w/ key data • address organization (communities of practice) • commit to infrastructure • ********************* • TODAY • feedback • pilot projects • tiger-team volunteers Richard W.
