“…This paper proposes a PDP design method based on risk management to address the PDP design and selection problem described above. The risk framework is important to PDP design because companies face several risks during new design; numerous authors stress the need to develop effective risk strategies as part of product development (Cooper 2003, Lough et al 2009). Several studies organise the dimensions of risk or categorise development risks as primarily technical, market, budget, or schedule (Keizer and Halman 2009).…”

“…On the other side, innovation is characterized by being a multi-stage process [76] and a heterogeneous activity [77]. Hence, from this perspective, web 2.0 tools are presumably not "one size fits all" as far as the innovation process is concerned, and as [78], for example, put it, 'the introduction of any tool into an environment has the potential to serve as a catalyst for change. Whether the net value of the resulting change will be positive or negative is highly dependent on how well matched the tool is to the needs of the intended users.…”

The purpose of this paper is to review existing knowledge management (KM) practices within the field of asset management, identify gaps, and propose a new approach to managing knowledge for asset management. Existing approaches to KM in the field of asset management are incomplete with the focus primarily on the application of data and information systems, for example the use of an asset register. It is contended these approaches provide access to explicit knowledge and overlook the importance of tacit knowledge acquisition, sharing and application. In doing so, current KM approaches within asset management tend to neglect the significance of relational factors; whereas studies in the knowledge management field have showed that relational modes such as social capital is imperative for effective KM outcomes. In this paper, we argue that incorporating a relational approach to KM is more likely to contribute to the exchange of ideas and the development of creative responses necessary to improve decision-making in asset management. This conceptual paper uses extant literature to explain knowledge management antecedents and explore its outcomes in the context of asset management. KM is a component in the new Integrated Strategic Asset Management (ISAM) framework developed in conjunction with asset management industry associations (AAMCoG, 2012) that improves asset management performance. In this paper we use Nahapiet and Ghoshal's (1998) model to explain antecedents of relational approach to knowledge management. Further, we develop an argument that relational knowledge management is likely to contribute to the improvement of the ISAM framework components, such as Organisational Strategic Management, Service Planning and Delivery. The main contribution of the paper is a novel and robust approach to managing knowledge that leads to the improvement of asset management outcomes.
