Abstract

Today’s enterprises require effective systems of knowledge management (KM) that guarantee proper know-how recording and processing in order to create innovative products and technologies. Part of a company’s know-how is recorded in an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system database as data and information which could be transformed into knowledge. In this, paper, a model of a KM system for manufacturing companies that carry out engineer-to-order (ETO) production is proposed. The model is based on ERP systems and includes tools that enable data and information processing and its subsequent conversion into a form of knowledge. An analysis and understanding of the model may result in an improvement of innovation processes in high-tech manufacturing companies. The proposed model may additionally support the research and design activities of manufacturing enterprises. Illustrative examples are provided.
