Liferay as Knowledge Management System

Knowledge Management is a method for managing information, skills and knowledge held within an organization/company, ranging from the process of collecting, distributing and using knowledge. Knowledge Management is useful so that the productivity of an organization does not rely on certain people. If the key person leaves the company, then the company will still be able to sustain because of the knowledge remains in the organization.

The purpose of the implementation of Knowledge Management (KM) in the organization / company is as follows:

Increase the speed of learning for new people in certain positions
Reducing the risk of repeating same mistakes in working
Storing knowledge as corporate assets when the employee resigned or retired.

Information Technology serves as a tool in the implementation of knowledge management within a company. Liferay is a portal system that we could use a Knowledge Management System.
