As Knowledge Management (KM) has taken an essential position of managing businesses in the knowledge-oriented society, many companies have adopted Knowledge Management System (KMS) into their organization. Many have questioned, however, in the result and the effectiveness in KMS. The purpose of this study is to explore ways to improve the current KMS by analyzing and identifying the causes that affect effectiveness of KMS. Blog which is an effective tool for communication could be used for KMS in order to make KMS more user friendly and more effective. This research is intended to conduct an empirical study on the differences between Blog-based KMS and Non-Blog-based KMS and suggest resolutions to potential issues of KMS. Blog-based KMS users show higher degree of satisfaction and usage toward their system. The result of this study suggests that the differences between two groups are primarily on system quality and knowledge quality, and many of these differences come from functions and characteristics of Blog.

As a knowledge-based economy is emerging, knowledge management (KM) is being rapidly disseminated in both academic circles and the business world. Accordingly, how to effectively manage knowledge is vital to the survival and advance of a company, particularly in project-based industries such as construction. For these reasons, construction companies have adopted IT-based Knowledge management systems (KMS), which is the technology platform and infrastructure that an organization employs to support knowledge management. However, many construction companies have spent resources on developing a KMS that only focus on codification. Furthermore, small and medium-sized companies have limited resources to afford extensive investments. This research addresses the problems found in the current KMS and develops a web-based construction knowledge management portal (CKMP). To achieve these objectives, a case study is conducted and requirements for implementing KM are identified. Based on the identified requirements, this paper builds CKMP using Expert Index (EI), blog, ontology based knowledge retrieval, and wikiblog. The most important functionality of CKMP is their fundamentals to synchronize and support KM process. In order to validate the CKMP, a pilot test with actual users is conducted, and the usability of the system is compared with the current systems. This study is relevant to both the construction industry and academia, as it provides a means of enhancing the performance of KM.

정보화 시대 흐름에 맞추어 건설기업들의 자체적 정보시스템 구축에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 특히 지식기반 경제라는 패러다임의 등장과 함께 지식관리시스템의 구축이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 하지만 기존 업무시스템과는 별개로 개발되어있고, 시스템에 내재된 지식관리 방법의 문제로 인해 지식관리시스템을 도입, 운영하고 있는 건설기업에서는 낮은 이용도를 보이고, 그 도입 성과에 대해 불만족해 하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 조직 내외부에 흩어져 있는 지식들을 한 곳으로 통합하고, 독립적으로 구축되어 있는 개별적인 시스템에 대한 기능적인 통합을 제공하는 통합형 지식관리시스템의 개발이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 현재 사용 중인 지식관리시스템의 사례 조사를 토대로 문제점 및 요구사항을 분석하고, 이러한 요구사항 반영하기 위한 방안으로 건설포탈의 활용을 제시한다. 요구사항을 중심으로 건설포탈에서 지식관리를 위해 제공되어야 할 어플리케이션과 그 어플리케이션들과 상호연계를 통한 통합적 지식관리 방법을 제시하고, 이를 시스템으로 개발하였다.
