Knowledge Management mempunyai peran yang semakin penting dalam organisasi di berbagai industri. Melalui Knowledge Management, organisasi berusaha untuk memperoleh atau menciptakan pengetahuan yang berpotensi, bermanfaat dan membuatnya tersedia bagi anggota organisasi sehingga dapat digunakan pada waktu dan tempat yang tepat untuk secara positif mempengaruhi kinerja organisasi. Perpustakaan Universitas Padjadjaran belum mengelola pengetahuan yang ada secara maksimal. Pengelolaan pengetahuan di perpustakaan Universitas Padjadjaran masih terbatas pada pengetahuan eksplisit contohnya teksbook, jurnal, ebook, e-journal, skripsi, tesis, dan disertasi, padahal masih banyak pengetahuan eksplisit dan tacit yang dapat dikelola sehingga membawa manfaat bagi civitas akademika dan institusi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah adanya model usulan Knowledge Management di perpustakaan Universitas Padjadjaran. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan analisis SWOT untuk kemudian diperoleh model KM di Perpustakaan Universitas Padjadjaran. Hasil penelitian diperoleh model usulan proses Knowledge Management di Perpustakaan Universitas Padjadjaran yaitu knowledge creation (penciptaan pengetahuan), knowledge acquisition (akuisisi pengetahuan), knowledge storage (penyimpanan pengetahuan) knowledge sharing (berbagi pengetahuan), dan knowledge application (aplikasi pengetahuan).

Alih daya (outsourcing) sistem informasi atau sering kali disebut sebagai pengadaan sistem informasi dapat diartikan sebagai pengalihan sebagian atau seluruhnya fungsi sistem informasi dari sebuah organisasi kepada penyedia layanan eksternal, untuk memperoleh keuntungan ekonomi, teknologi dan strategis. Namun mendapatkan keuntungan dari outsourcing sistem informasi bukanlah hal yang mudah; terdapat beberapa faktor yang harus diperhatikan untuk mendapatkan keseluruhan keuntungan dari outsourcing sistem informasi, sehingga suatu organisasi dapat dikatakan berhasil dalam outsourcing sistem informasinya. Di lain pihak, penerapan Knowledge Management (KM) diartikan sebagai sebuah proses dari Knowledge Management yang disebut siklus pengetahuan (knowledge cycle), dimana terdapat kegiatan pembuatan (creation), penyebaran (sharing), dan penggunaan (application) pengetahuan didalamnya. Pada kebanyakan organisasi, KM dianggap sebagai faktor utama untuk memperoleh dan mendukung keunggulan bersaing. Selanjutnya, pengetahuan juga dianggap sebagai faktor sangat penting dalam keberhasilan outsourcing sistem informasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji hubungan antara penerapan Knowledge Management (knowledge creation, knowledge sharing, dan knowledge application) pada keberhasilan outsourcing sistem informasi melalui faktor penentu pengadaan sistem informasi (kualitas komunikasi dan kualitas kerjasama). Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan melibatkan 66 manajer proyek sistem informasi pada sektor telekomunikasi di Indonesia. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa knowledge application sebagai tahap akhir pada penerapan KM memberikan pengaruh signifikan terhadap kesuksesan outsourcing sistem informasi melalui kualitas komunikasi dan kualitas kerjasama. Pada akhirnya, menyediakan model penerapan knowledge management dapat digunakan sebagai salah satu panduan bagi organisasi dalam melakukan outsourcing sistem informasi untuk mencapai kesuksesan dan memperoleh keseluruhan keuntungan dari outsorcing sistem informasi tersebut.

Knowledge sharing is central to knowledge management in organizations. The more tacit the knowledge, the harder it is to share. However, successful knowledge sharing means looking not just at the content of the knowledge, and the people and technology concerned in the sharing, but the context in which that sharing takes place. This chapter discusses relevant theories from knowledge management and other fields. It goes on to present a model covering the time, place and context of the knowledge sharing activity, developed using theories about decision support systems. This forms the final part of a three-stage approach intended to help managers (and others) make decisions about how to support knowledge sharing activities in organizations. Each stage takes the form of a question to be answered, as follows: 1) What are the business processes concerned? 2) What is the knowledge to be shared related to - knowledge creation, knowledge acquisition, knowledge refinement, knowledge storage, or knowledge use? 3) What does this mean for the time, place and context of the knowledge sharing?

Management research has often overlooked the role of knowledge and knowledge management (KM) in the analysis of organizations and their performance. Also, the literature on KM is short of empirical evidence on the likely interrelatedness of the KM processes. This investigation adopted a research model and used data from 38 Egyptian software firms to examine: (1) the relationship of the KM processes of knowledge acquisition, documentation, transfer, creation, and application to organizational performance, and (2) a number of relationships within the KM processes themselves. The results suggest that knowledge application influences organizational performance, knowledge acquisition and knowledge creation influence knowledge application, and knowledge acquisition and knowledge transfer influence knowledge creation. Although they provide a limited support to the research mode, the results signify the value of continued examination and enhancement of such a model.


This article is dealt with investigate the impact knowledge management process, knowledge creation, knowledge sharing, knowledge application and knowledge storage, an innovation. Accordingly, a questionnaire-based survey was designed to test the aforementioned model based on dataset of 122 employees’ from the agency traveling in Jordan. Following the analytical descriptive methodanalyzed the relationship between the independent variable (knowledge management process) аnd the dependent variable (innovation), aims to know the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable. In order, to achieve the objective of the study, a 24-question questionnaire was developed to collect primary information from the study community, and then analyzed using SPSS V 22, multiple regression were conducted to test the article`s hypotheses. The results indicated that knowledge process (knowledge creation, knowledge sharing, and knowledge storage) positively and significantly affect innovation. However, knowledge application insignificantly effect in innovation, and these results are in agree with the results of the previous literature. The results have enormous implication for the agency traveling in Jordan. The study provided a group of recommendations to speed up adopting the knowledge management in agency traveling in Jordan, the results of this study suggest that firms can be better off, in terms of innovation performance, if they are based on the incentive / compensation system for knowledge activities. When traditional economic figures are replaced by indicators such as knowledge creation, participation and utilization, staff will most likely work with these activities and thereby improve the performance of the company's full innovation.

The manufacturing sector has been profoundly impacted by advances in project management knowledge. As a result, it is critical to optimize service development processes in every project. The aim of this research was to increase cement manufacturing production by applying knowledge management concepts and Knowledge management as a mediator. The study was conducted at various cement manufacturing facilities in Iraq's Kurdistan province. To quantify production improvement in cement companies, the researchers examined four facets of knowledge management: Knowledge creation, Knowledge storage management, knowledge sharing, and Knowledge application, with Knowledge management serving as a mediator. To conduct the current analysis, the researchers used a quantitative research approach in the form of a survey. The questionnaire was randomly distributed to 140 administrative employees of various cement manufacturing companies in the Kurdistan region. The researchers did, however, collect 128completed questionnaires. To assess developed research hypotheses, the study used hierarchical multiple regression analysis and the Sobel test. The findings indicated that all knowledge management elements (Knowledge creation, Knowledge storage development, knowledge sharing, and Knowledge application) had a clear and important positive relationship with increased production at carpet manufacturers in Iraq's Kurdistan region. Additionally, the findings indicated that all knowledge management concepts with a mediator (project management development program) had an indirect positive and important relationship with increased production at cement manufacturing facilities in Iraq's Kurdistan region.

Purpose Inspired by the theory of planned behavior, the purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of the big five personality (BFP) traits (openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism) on four aspects of individuals’ knowledge management (KM) behaviors: knowledge acquisition, knowledge storage, knowledge sharing, and knowledge application. Design/methodology/approach A survey-based approach was used to collect data from 221 employees from five knowledge-intensive firms. Findings The partial least square analyses confirmed a positive effect of two personality traits, openness and conscientiousness, on knowledge acquisition as well as knowledge application behavior. In addition, the positive effects of extraversion and conscientiousness traits on knowledge storage behavior were confirmed. The findings also revealed that agreeableness and openness traits positively relate to knowledge sharing behavior. Finally, neuroticism had a negative effect on knowledge acquisition and application behavior. Practical implications This study suggests that organizations need to incorporate employees’ personality into the design and implementation of their KM systems. The findings provide managers with insight into the course of personnel selection and retention to facilitate KM behaviors in organizations. Originality/value Little is known about the relationship between the BFP traits and four aspects of KM behaviors at the individual level. The present study has contributed to the existing body of literature through clarifying how personality traits relate to four dimensions of individuals’ KM behaviors.

The objective of article is to provide important empirical evidence to support the role of individual knowledge management processes and separate innovation types within firms. Specifically, knowledge acquisition and knowledge application are analyzed and empirically tested in relation to product and process innovation as well as business performance. The results support the direct impact of product and process innovation on business performance. In addition, the results show the indirect effect of knowledge acquisition and knowledge application on firm business performance through product and process innovation. Although KM represents a complex concept of knowledge management in a firm and can contain more processes, this article confirms that KM processes individually contribute to the innovation and indirectly on business performance. Besides, it confirms mediating effect of innovation between both knowledge acquisition and knowledge application and organizational business performance. In addition, most of the similar studies have been focused on the developed Western countries.
