Abstract

ABSTRACT Knowledge is a vital asset for organisations. It requires organisations to consider Knowledge Management (KM) activities in their processes. Nowadays, KM is relatively well applied in large organisations, but various constraints are faced by Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). This article aims to define an agility-based KM method for the SME context. A lot of research has been performed in the direction of facilitating knowledge sharing in agile projects, while our research aims to present an original and concrete KM method for SMEs by integrating agility principles. We point out that (i) the KM combined with Agile Scrum practices could adapt to SMEs’ specificities, and (ii) SMEs present several positive specificities for the agile-based KM implementation. An application of the method is built in collaboration with Axsens-bte, a SME company specialising in consultancy and training in the supply chain and industrial methods.
