Summary: | Ever since knowledge has become an important corporate asset, Knowledge
Management (KM) has become a critical concern for construction consulting
companies to create and sustain their competitive advantage. Therefore, an
exploratory research was conducted to identify and classify the methods of
implementing key KM faktors in Malaysian construction consulting
companies using a three-round Delphi technique study to identify and rank
critical components of Knowledge Management (KM) principles for
construction consulting companies. Subsequently, faktor analysis was used
to generate variables for the KM faktors and the results are compared with the
original groupings identified from the first level of the research. Finally, the
classification of the implementation of KM faktors are analysed and further
grouped into two categories i.e., exploitive and explorative. A one sample ttest was conducted to confirm the difference between the two types of KM and
the overall the KM program. |
