> Why would you want or need a project knowledge system?

1.  Project knowledge is siloed.  Project learnings and knowledge are spread across an enormous number of people, devices and tools.  The amount of content per project has also exploded in recent years. This makes it hard and time consuming to get our arms around the work, especially on large projects or when working on many projects.   Project knowledge systems offer an easy way to access an enormously wide range of knowledge and content about a project, efficiently.

2.  To prevent Organizational Amnesia. This happens when organizations cannot remember how they created or developed something of value for customers. Companies that experience high turnover or lose specialized skills experience this.  If you provide, or hire, services to perform project work of any kind, you're primarily selling or buying knowledge, skill and expertise.   As workers become more transient, all organization are at risk of losing their historical project learnings.  Project knowledge management is a strategy to retain more knowledge even as temporary workers come and go, and employees' turnover more.

What is the difference between a project management system and a project knowledge system?

Project management systems (PMS) are typically data and file management systems that include features such as; tasks, milestones, schedules, assets, accounting, file sharing etc. Knowledge systems are designed to manage the knowledge, advice or perspective individuals create while interpreting data and information.  Many PMS are "expert systems" that can take very long to learn to use. Few employees end up using them because it is too frustrating for the "novice user" to complete a task or find what they are looking for.

What are the key attributes of AEC Profile's project knowledge system?

Project Profiles organize an enormous amount of information, data, files and content integrated with conversational knowledge from individuals on a single page design.  This format allows any user to quickly understand who has done what, when, and what they delivered or recommended. In just a few minutes anyone can understand even the most complicated project, or at least have access to what each team member said they did. 

Employee profiles accumulate the work history of each employee.  Every project the employee works on is linked to their profile, as does every post they make on a project profile.

Contractors/consultants/vendors profiles accumulate all their projects and posts, and also allows employees to rate and describe their performance on each project.

Directories allow users to find any project, employee, contact or organization in seconds by searching on; name, location, division, department, type, market, industry, classification, budget, date, scope of services, titles, roles and more.

What additional benefits come from sharing project knowledge this way?

Enterprise productivity.  All companies need to improve productivity to stay competitive.  This system can save employees hours each day through easy access to an enormous amount of knowledge and data that employees are constantly looking for.  The cumulative impact is this system can pay for itself in weeks.  

Happier Employees.  Knowledge workers want; 
to know more about other project work
to learn from anyone or any project team 
to know that management understands what they do

Less time managing; disputes, mistakes and re-work.  Project knowledge management means learnings that improve outcomes on projects are captured and shared throughout the organization.  

What would it mean for your organization if every employee could learn from the work of any person or project team they want, in real time?
