A Literature Review for Knowledge Management Maturity Scale for Architecture Firms of Turkey

Year 2020, Volume: 8 Issue: 1, - , 31.03.2020

Abstract

Knowledge is one of the most significant resources of our era. Usage
and management of it provides formation and development for organizational
memory. The knowledge that contains as tacit form in firms, gains the
characteristics of easily transferable and even documentable by turning into
explicit form.

Knowledge management is now a core practice for gaining an advantage
in competitive market conditions used by organizations. That practice can
be used for collecting, transferring, safely keeping and managing knowledge.
Managing knowledge has importance within the architecture industry where
project knowledge needs to be used and delivered effectively. That’s because
the architectural design is knowledge-centric planning based on why and how to
do a job, how to reach the perfect solution. Moreover, it provides lots of
information and knowledge for other disciplines.





The implementation of knowledge management has various
degrees in every organization. Knowledge management maturity is recognized as
determining the level of companies at managing knowledge. This study aims to
review literature for works about these terms and propose a scaling system for
knowledge management maturity levels for architecture companies of Turkey in
the consideration of information received. Knowledge management maturity models
are scaled at 4 to 6 levels in various reviewed works. Based on these exercises
it is proposed that from 0 to 5 there are 6 levels of knowledge management
maturity levels for architecture companies of Turkey depending on usage of
knowledge management applications.
