Integrated change and knowledge management system - development and evaluation
journal contribution
posted on 2019-04-11, 12:25 authored by Fangxiao Liu, Chimay J. Anumba, Abdou Karim Jallow, Patricia CarrilloPatricia CarrilloKnowledge is often generated as part of the change and dependency management (CDM) process.
Given that knowledge has become a fundamental resource for organizations, it is imperative that any new
knowledge generated from CDM is captured and disseminated. In energy retrofits, inadequate management of
changes and dependencies could have negative impacts on building energy performance. This paper presents the
development and evaluation of an Integrated Change and Knowledge Management System (ICKMS) in this scope.
It discusses the use case, requirements, information exchanges, and the system architecture. ICKMS can be used
in projects to manage changes and dependencies, track change histories, and capture lessons learned from
changes. The proposed ICKMS eliminates the gap between CDM and knowledge management (KM) activities,
and prevents loss of potential knowledge in CDM processes. The use of the integrated system in construction
projects is expected to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of simultaneously managing changes, dependencies
and knowledge.
