A Knowledge and/or Information Audit is a rigorous examination of an organisation’s knowledge and information use. It is intended to make visible the knowledge and information assets that drive its core activities. Organisations conduct knowledge audits for a number of reasons, such as to:
- identify what and where key knowledge assets can be found
- identify knowledge gaps (what they should know but don’t)
- use them as evidence for developing a corporate taxonomy
- identify high priority documents (in terms of demand and value) for migrating into a portal
- use them to set KM priorities and needs in a KM Strategy exercise
Straits Knowledge’s Principal Consultant, Patrick Lambe, is the author of the forthcoming book Knowledge Audits and Knowledge Mapping (Oxford: Chandos, 2015). The Straits Knowledge methodology is described in this infographic poster, and is supported by our innovative knowledge asset mapping tool, Aithin.
