Technological Knowledge Framework Towards Organizational Knowledge Transfer in Mexico

This paper presents the technological framework in order to advance research model of organizational knowledge transfer to Mexico. There are diverse studies and programs available in both the literature and in the market of software of knowledge management. However, few software programs integrate knowledge storage with user interaction to transfer knowledge, and besides are quite expensive for mid-size organizations in emerging countries, such as Mexico. The aim of this study was to develop a research program in order to model an organizational knowledge transfer to Mexico. The program developed for this research was based on Web 2.0 and on the Semantic Web to offer users the benefit of greater interaction with the feasibility of locating in a quick way the required knowledge that comprises the system. The platform that runs the software is Semantic Web Builder, a tool developed in the Fondo de Información y Documentación para la Industria INFOTEC for the developing of semantic portals. The software is comprised by four elements: a) Corporate network based on the vision of inter-operability of the Web 2.0 in which members of the organization interact to transfer knowledge; b) Storage of documents in which the construction of codified knowledge is in process, so storage is transitory; c) Digital library is the site in which is preserved the stock of formalized knowledge of the organization; and d) Search engine that goes across the diverse system modules and that allows use.
