Sustainment Knowledge Network

The Sustainment Knowledge Network is one of the Army's primary platforms for disseminating and facilitating the exchange of knowledge between Sustainers within the Generating and Operating Forces. It is an enterprise knowledge management and collaboration platform that links all aspects of Sustainment and Logistics across the full spectrum of the Army’s operational construct and provides the means to rapidly produce, share, and respond to the critical knowledge needs of our Soldiers and DoD Civilians whenever and wherever needed.

SKN-Live

SKN-Live is a synchronous and asynchronous service which integrates on-site video and audio recording, post production video and audio editing, a budgetary cost savings analysis, video archiving, and technical rehearsal and KM event support. By combining these services with those found in the Army and DoD enterprise service, (e.g in-browser web conferencing service, webcam, presentation sharing, desktop sharing, polling, recording, and a multi-user chat room) SKN-Live provides a highly effective virtual collaborative environment unique to the Sustainment Community.

Knowledge Assessment

A Knowledge Assessment of an organization defines and identifies knowledge gaps, knowledge needs, knowledge mapping, and areas in need of process improvement for better knowledge flow to enhance the organizational performance and effectiveness. The KM-PI Office utilizes the following five-step Knowledge Assessment process for every project.

• Assess: Analyze unit‘s knowledge needs and establish approaches that improve shared understanding
• Design: Identify and tailor solutions to close and mitigate the gaps or problems found during assessment
• Develop: Build the solutions derived from the assessment and design phases
• Pilot: Test and validate the KM solution for feasibility, time, cost, and effectiveness
• Implement: Finalize, present for acceptance, and integrate the KM solution on a large scale throughout the organization
