Integrated Management Systems

Abstract Integrated management systems are increasingly used in modern enterprises. They allow for a more comprehensive approach to a number of important issues, affecting the modification of activities and process improvement. However, the integration itself often does not provide the right effects (apart from economic ones) without leading to real, multifaceted coupling of activities between the components of the system. To obtain such effects, it is necessary to connect the components in one system. Knowledge management can be a helpful element in this activity. Each component of the integrated management systems generates a large number of data and information. Their use is possible only by building on their basis knowledge leading to improvement of activities or innovation. The use of knowledge, especially hidden knowledge that contains unique and inaccessible knowledge for competitors, should be a priority for today's enterprises. The study presents considerations regarding the possibility of including knowledge management in integrated management systems, treating knowledge as a basic element connecting the system.

Integrated Management Systems

The previous research on integrated management systems has varied. Most of them used a structural equation model (SEM) or consisted of a literature review. These studies have not yet presented a relationship between integration management systems at the practical level in order to improve organisational performance. These studies have not included knowledge management in their implementation. Research on knowledge management is needed in order to minimise the inefficiency of an organisation. The level of maturity of knowledge management in construction companies is only about 50% (at the practiced level). The biggest obstacle to the realisation of an integrated management system is a lack of knowledge management. Knowledge management is a key standard in integrated management and sustainability reporting. This study aims to identify the most important variables needed in the context of the development of knowledge management and integrated management systems through RII analysis, including developing a job description through RAM RACI R (Responsible), A (Accountable), C (Consult), and I (Inform).

The Impact

ABSTRACT: In an era where knowledge is increasingly seen as an organization's most valuable asset, many firms have implemented knowledge-management systems (KMS) in an effort to capture, store, and disseminate knowledge across the firm. Concerns have been raised, however, about the potential dependency of users on KMS and the related potential for decreases in knowledge acquisition and expertise development (Cole 1998; Alavi and Leidner 2001b; O'Leary 2002a). The purpose of this study, which is exploratory in nature, is to investigate whether using KMS embedded with explicit knowledge impacts novice decision makers' judgment performance and knowledge acquisition differently than using traditional reference materials (e.g., manuals, textbooks) to research and solve a problem. An experimental methodology is used to study the relative performance and explicit knowledge acquisition of 188 participants partitioned into two groups using either a KMS or traditional reference materials in problem solving. The study finds that KMS users outperform users of traditional reference materials when they have access to their respective systems/materials, but the users of traditional reference materials outperform KMS users when respective systems/materials are removed. While all users improve interpretive problem solving and encoding of definitions and rules, there are significant differences in knowledge acquisition between the two groups.
