Abstract

It is required for an organization, before successfully applying a Knowledge Management (KM) methodology, to develop and implement a knowledge infrastructure, consisting of people, organizational and technological systems. Up to now, few approaches have been proposed for such technological systems supporting KM in organizations. Present paper advances previous work by proposing neural projection models for the analysis of the KM status of companies from two different industrial sectors. Exploratory methods are applied to real-life case studies to know and understand the structure of KM data. Subsequently, the application of such models generates meaningful conclusions that allow experts to diagnose KM from two different points of view: companies on the one hand and industrial sectors on the other hand.
