Managing Project Knowledge at BAE Systems Inc.

To help project management teams and offices build the right KM capabilities, APQC recently conducted a study exploring the intersection of knowledge and project management. This research explores how organizations leverage KM approaches such as communities of practice, enterprise social networking, lessons learned methods, collaboration platforms, and content repositories to support project management methodologies and processes.

This case study explains how global defense, aerospace, and security company BAE Systems Inc. uses a case-based lessons learned approach and related training courses to build knowledge transfer, sharing, and reuse into the project management lifecycle.
