Improving performance by sharing knowledge at large scale
Knowledge and know-how are a company’s number one asset; managing and sharing them represent a strategic challenge. For the transition from data, to information, to knowledge, CVA supports you in extracting, summarising, perpetuating and internally promoting your knowledge and know-how in a continuous improvement process.
Thanks to modern IT tools, knowledge management serves to:
● Ensure the longevity of the operational and tacit knowledge produced, to draw more value from it
● Increase the use of high-added-value knowledge, through communication
● Construct a know-how base and maintain communities of practice
● Support the adoption of new working methods (change management).
Forming multi-discipline teams able to take action at each stage of the knowledge handling process
● Content management by a team of discipline specialists.
● Coordination of an authoring and support team.
● Review, analysis, organisation and summary of knowledge and know-how.
● Interviews and re-transcription with key actors in order to share tacit knowledge.
● Optimisation of the feedback process and development of tools to improve feedback use (REX).
● Advice, deployment and support with regard to specific IT solutions.

Teaching employees about technical and commercial successes and failures
Knowledge management and experience sharing represent high stakes for organisations seeking to learn from their failures and successes, and to continue evolving.
● Interviews with employees returning from an affiliate, or who are at the end of their career, or following a company buyout.
● Extraction and formal documenting of tacit knowledge.
● Standardisation and labelling of REX feedback reports so that they can be used more effectively.

● Editorial support with a view to writing a reference document.
● Inclusion and referencing in a knowledge base.
● Vast communication of practices via multiple media.
