Manoj KumarIn a highly competitive marketplace, knowledge is both power and profit--for enterprises and their employees. Companies today realize that the real value of knowledge derives less from managing it and more from creating and exchanging it. In fact, it is proven that organizations with more than 1000 knowledge workers lose over $5 million a year due to unproductive searching. This calls for innovative Knowledge Management (KM) systems that facilitate the creation, management and exchange of knowledge. The robust KM solutions today integrate various modules--from social and mobile to cloud and analytics--into the system. The effort is towards having a knowledge repository that collates input from multiple stakeholders--employees, partners or clients, which can be put into use as and when required.For companies, the success lies in making this knowledge repository highly searchable. With emails, brochures, memos and other forms of information streaming at a faster rate, the aim is to deliver right intelligence at the right time for the users. For employees this can mean access to best practices or successful tips--for instance, pulling up information right away and replying real time to a client, instead of consulting with someone else from the company and then getting back. KM systems that facilitate these functions will power the creation of benchmark products and services in the long run, and save millions of dollars for an enterprise.With the benefits from KM systems set to leap boundaries, CIO Review is presenting to you its 2nd Annual Edition on Knowledge Management. This edition blends insights from industry leaders with a listing of most promising companies in the KM space. These companies exhibit vast expertise and innovative strategies that can complement your knowledge management strategies.Let us know your thoughts.Jeevan George Managing Editoreditor@cioreview.comRight Knowledge.
