Knowledge audit is a systematic examination and evaluation of organizational knowledge health, which examines organization’s knowledge needs, existing knowledge assets/resources, knowledge flows, future knowledge needs, knowledge gap analysis as well as the behavior of people in sharing and creating knowledge. In one way, a knowledge audit can reveal an organization’s knowledge strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats and risks.

Maintaining product feasibility and managing knowledge flows are difficult if a complex process is operating under an equivocal environment and by an organization with discontinuous membership across project phases. In this paper, we built upon findings from an ethnographic study and data from a knowledge network analysis of an affordable housing development project to extend an agent-based computational organization theory (COT) modeling tool.

Knowledge Management, KM has become a strategic issue for the whole organization. Whether KM is a new concept, or merely a fad, it is of increasing interest to many organizations.

It is observed that cultural dimension plays an important role in KM practices, especially the supports from top management.
