Well organized data contributes extensively to the classification possibilities and quality of Knowledge Management. XML schemas play an important role in data organization activities, and provide basic foundations for companies and organizations dealing with large amounts of data. In times where knowledge represents the greatest advantage in a competitive economy and is relatively simple to find through different web providers, the quality of internal data structures and efficient management of a company’s valuable information is of the utmost importance. XML schemas are one of the mechanisms that can provide a data organization system in a qualitative manner, and efficient knowledge management as soon as data have been defined or accumulated. A good XML schema support is a way to increase the competitiveness of an organization by ensuring structured data quality and simplifying the Knowledge Management process.

Quality data from the Expanded Immunization Programme (EPI), which is pivotal in reducing infant mortalities globally, is critical for knowledge management on the EPI. This chapter assesses the quality of data from the EPI for the six childhood killer diseases from the EPI tally books, monthly reports, and the District Health Information Management System (DHIMS II) using the Data Quality Self-Assessment (DQS) tool of WHO. The study found high availability and completeness of data in the EPI tally books and the monthly EPI reports. The accuracy and currency of data on all antigens from EPI tally books compared to reported number issued were comparatively low. The composite quality index of the data from the EPI is thus low, an indication poor supervision of the EPI programme in the health facilities. There is therefore, the need for effective monitoring and data validation at the point of collection and entry to improve the data quality for knowledge management on the EPI programme.

Knowledge is and has remained a core competence of all thriving organizations and so, the management of knowledge will remain a key competitive strategy for any organization that wants to remain innovative, sustainable and profitable in this dynamic world of business volatility. The difference between one organization and another, in term of performance and skill utilization has been linked not only to the quality of their knowledge repositories, but also to how knowledge is shared among organizational members. This paper reviewed some extant literature and discovered that the most important of all knowledge management processes lies in knowledge sharing. Rather than keeping our stock of both tacit and explicit knowledge to ourselves, we should endeavor to share knowledge because our stock of knowledge does not deplete when we share it. Rather, knowledge sharing reinforces our knowledge base and makes knowledge to stick and become more permanent. As a matter of fact, the tacit knowledge which resides in the knower goes with the holder when he or she dies. This paper also supports the formulation of a conceptual framework that will establish a link between knowledge management and the organizational learning process.
