Melting Knowledge Management across the Supply Chains in the Consulting Industry: Knowledge Sharing in Construction Supply Chains
Supply chain management and knowledge management have emerged as two distinct business philosophies in the last decade. Both are making rapid inroads into the consulting industry. The premise of this paper is that knowledge management would make it possible for all the trading partners in a supply chain to reap benefits. Current research in knowledge management in the consulting industry is generally targeting those big organizations that are main contractors. This has restricted the scope of knowledge management, and limits the benefits to a few, rather than the who le industry. If the consulting industry as a whole is to prosper and improve its productivity, strategies for knowledge management at the industry level must be established. This paper argues the case for melt ing the scope of knowledge management across the full extent of the supply chain, and attempts to identify the benefits that may arise out of sharing knowledge across the supply chain.
