The Impact of Knowledge Management on Added Value of Supply Chains: An Empirical Study

Abstract

The study aimed to determine measurement dimensions for knowledge management and demonstrate the significance of organizations' reliance on advanced technological systems. In addition, the study aimed to identify the impact of knowledge management on added value of supply chains. The study revealed numerous findings. First, subsidiaries of the studied sector lack the liquidity rates necessary to finance and maintain the technological infrastructure of these organizations. Moreover, knowledge management contributes to the enhancement of the creation of added value for the products of organizations affiliated with the studied sector. The study also recommended that organizations need to support senior management to adopt the application of knowledge management systems due to their significant impact on improving the efficiency of the overall performance of the organizations within the studied sector. Consequently, this results in an increase in supply chain efficiency and the settlement of sector organizations' debts with other government sectors.
