An innovative and effective knowledge management system helps organizations respond to a rapidly changing marketplace across different industries. However, if any of the integrated components of the knowledge management system – including structure, culture, processes, technology and staffing - aren’t well optimized, the entire knowledge management system will be rendered ineffective, thereby impeding organizational growth and agility.

Best Practices, LLC undertook this benchmarking research to identify how integrated and effective knowledge management systems can drive performance improvement across a company, its brands, business units and core functions. This report examines how organizations across different industry sectors are managing knowledge to promote collaboration, develop greater market insights and support superior performance of new and in-line products. Precisely, this report probes the five “pillars” or critical dimensions of superior knowledge management including structure and leadership; culture and incentives; processes; technology; staffing and training.

Industries Profiled:

Study Snapshot

Sixty leaders from 45 companies distributed across biopharma, technology and other industries were engaged in this research through a benchmarking survey.

Key topics covered in this report include:

  • Organizational Structure
  • Role of Leadership in Driving Knowledge Management
  • Effectiveness of Knowledge Management
  • Innovativeness of Knowledge Management Function
  • Process Management
  • Knowledge Management Systems that Promote Sharing and Collaboration
  • Technologies Enabling Superior Knowledge Management
  • Knowledge Management Resourcing
  • Lessons Learned


Key Findings

Sample key insights uncovered from this report are noted below. Detailed findings are available in the full report.


1. Probing the Impact of Superior Knowledge Management and the Forces Driving Knowledge Management Effectiveness

  • Drivers of Knowledge Management effectiveness: Ample staffing levels, collaborative culture, org. structure that supports collaboration and integrating technology were identified as major drivers of a strong Knowledge Management organization.

2. Culture of Collaboration & Knowledge Management Systems
  • Technology and management supporting Knowledge Sharing have the most impact on knowledge exchange: For both pharma and non-pharma, platforms for knowledge sharing and leadership that actively supports knowledge sharing are contributors of a strong knowledge sharing culture at up to 9/10 of companies.

3. Processes
  • Knowledge Management standardization is a leading indicator of mature Knowledge Management systems: Pharma lag behind non-pharma in terms of Knowledge Management standardization. 38% of pharma report mature or expert Knowledge Management standards versus 68% for non-pharma.

4. Structures & Accountabilities
  • To place and manage Knowledge Management resources, ~ 1/3 of companies deploy a decentralized structure, 25% centralized and 22% hub & spoke structures.

5. Technology
  • Automation can help accelerate knowledge entry and curation, which improves timeliness, user uptake and standardization across the enterprise: Savvy knowledge management systems use automation to accelerate classification, meta tagging and distribution of critical information to different stakeholder groups.

6. Staffing, Training, Incentives
  • Knowledge Management reports directly to senior leadership: In pharma, 24% have Knowledge Management executive reporting to C-Suite, 34% - to EVP/SVP/VP and 26% to Director/Head.
