Abstract:
The collective acquired information of an organization is called
the ‘institutional knowledge’. The centralized Knowledge Repository uses
standard taxonomies to consolidate information into one place allowing
knowledge to be searched and retrieved with maximum efficiency and
accuracy. Many organizations have realized the value of institutional
knowledge and already initiated knowledge management systems that
collect, store, redistribute, utilize and ultimately leverage the institutional
knowledge for the benefit of the organization. All the organizations, in
particular the R&D institutions like IGCAR need to build knowledge
repository on its specific areas of interest. Once created, the IKR will act as
a vehicle for knowledge dissemination, sharing and transfer. This paper gives
a comprehensive view on building IKR at IGCAR.
