ISO 30401:2018: Knowledge management system
The ISO30401:2018 standard establishes requirements for knowledge management systems in organizations, and discusses the establishment and maintenance of knowledge management systems, establishing a culture of knowledge management and sharing it, knowledge management solutions and how to measure knowledge in the organization.
The content and implementation of a knowledge management system at an organization has a number of influences:
- Organization characteristics, including its size, structure, and stakeholders
- Organization environment, changes to it, and risks in it
- Organization culture, especially its knowledge management system culture
- The organization's changing needs
- The organization's unique objectives
- The organization's core abilities
- The organization's intellectual capital
The standard encourages the organization to adopt a knowledge management process as the foundation for effective high-quality operations by the knowledge management system over time.
The standard is applicable for all types of private and public organizations and enterprises, as well as non-profit organizations, irrespective of their size or business.
Establishment of ISO 30401:2018: Knowledge management system will enable the organization to
- Operate on a sophisticated strategic basis
- Identify and understand challenges and needs
- Plan knowledge management activities, set priorities, and conduct cost/benefit analyses
- Locate, measure, evaluate, and analyze operational results at a number of levels
- Improve processes on the basis of results, analysis, and learning from accumulated experience
- Improve the knowledge management response to the organization's needs
- Offer solutions to new challenges
Standards Institution of Israel auditors will help the organization check that its knowledge management system is in compliance with the requirements of the standard, what are the points that need improvement, and issue ISO 30401:2018 certification.
To add value, integrate implementation of the knowledge management system with other management systems, including SI ISO 27001: Information security management; SI ISO/IEC 20000-1: Information Technology — Service Management; and SI ISO 9001: Quality management system
We recommend purchasing the standard at the Standards Institution of Israel Information Center, study the requirements, and participate in suitable training.
