Abstract

Knowledge management is nowadays one of the great research fields in which several philosophical and theoretical approaches have been proposed, and different technological solutions have also been developed and adapted with in it. However, knowledge management is a concept still evolving, and it faces serious difficulties when attempts are made to implement it in enterprises. The main cause of this situation is the lack of formal methodologies for guiding the process of development and application of this kind of systems. Moreover, there are few practical cases that can be taken as a reference and none at all when it comes to virtual enterprises. In this context, this paper outlines my PhD thesis proposal for describing this difficult situation, which is the origin of this research and the objectives suggested to solve it. The aim of the thesis is to develop a general methodology for directing the process of development and implementation of a Global Knowledge Management System (including the highly complex tacit part of it) in a virtual enterprise.
