Students in this assessment will analyse the effectiveness and implementation of technologybased knowledge management systems. They will further evaluate the knowledge management life-cycle in various contexts and will create a knowledge management plan aided by requisite technologies that enable the storage and dissemination of knowledge within an organisation. Assessment Instructions This is an individual assessment. In which you are required to analyse an organisation you are familiar with (preferably the organisation/company you worked for in the past or you are currently working for, etc.). The findings presented in the written analysis must be based on primary research and should be reinforced by examining relevant secondary data. Therefore, you will need to have access to the primary data of the organisation researched. You must also incorporate theories and concepts of Knowledge Management discussed in weeks 1 to 3. In order to prepare this assessment you need to follow two steps. Step-1 Identify and critically analyse the core components of the Knowledge Management Cycle in the organisation you are familiar with (preferably the organisation/company you worked for in the past, you are currently working, etc.). Analyse the strengths and weaknesses of the current Knowledge Management Systems, and summarise recommendations that might improve the current Knowledge Management Systems in the same organisation.

Step-2 Develop a Knowledge Management Plan for the organisation, aided by requisite technologies that enable the storage and dissemination of knowledge. The format of your analysis should follow: An Introduction that summarises the purpose of the Analysis. A brief overview of the organisation you researched. Core components of the Knowledge Management Cycle (KMC) in your researched organisation, including analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the current Knowledge Management Systems (KMS) and recommendations that might improve the current Knowledge Management Systems. Knowledge Management Plan aided by requisite technologies that enable the storage and dissemination of knowledge within the researched organisation. A conclusion. Reference list.
