Establishing a Scalable Knowledge Management Strategy and Solution Framework for a Leading Automotive Manufacturing Company: A Case Study

The Challenge
One of the top global leaders in automotive manufacturing faced significant challenges in managing and accessing critical knowledge across its diverse teams. The company’s employees were working in silos and struggling with fragmented data spread across various departments and business units. Employees relied heavily on personal networks to find information, overburdening subject matter experts and creating bottlenecks during pivotal innovation phases. They consistently spent significant time searching for technical specifications, design documents, and previous project insights. Further, employees did not trust the integrity of the information available to them, limiting their ability to reuse past information efficiently.
