The following profile is part of an APQC series highlighting notable knowledge management (KM) programs by industry. BAE Systems’ KM efforts were selected for inclusion in the aerospace and defense industry group. This profile describes how BAE Systems manages project-related knowledge, mines projects for transferrable lessons, and then incorporates those lessons into targeted training sessions for senior executives and project/program managers. Given the nature of the industry, BAE Systems operates in many respects independently in many regions; this profile provides an example from BAE Systems’ U.S.-based subsidiary.
