“…However, this has proved to be a difficult area in which to succeed (Carrillo, 2005;Udeaja et al, 2006 andAnbari et al, 2008). There are significant problems in the current economic climate in that lessons are often 'tacit' and held in peoples' 'heads' or 'minds' (Tsoukas, 2001;Nonaka and Takeuchi, 1995) and with reductions in workforces this learning or knowledge leaks away and is lost forever to the organisation unless it is captured and/or shared (Davenport et al, 2006).…”

“…IT-based knowledge capture, which has developed from audio diaries (Hari et al, 2005) to Web 2.0 applications (Kivrak et al, 2008;Udeaja et al, 2008), has gained a lot of research attention. For example, Soibelman et al (2003) developed a design review checking system that captures knowledge generated from a review process and transfers such knowledge to a permanent part of an organisation.…”

“…However, this work usually happens at the end of a project, during which some professionals have already moved on to the next project. To alleviate this problem, Udeaja et al (2008) developed a web-based system to achieve the proposed concept of 'live' capture and reuse of knowledge.…”

Knowledge is the resource that contributes the most to an organisation's competitiveness. Construction projects usually introduce project teams from different disciplines. Hence, knowledge in projects is complex and difficult to manage. To efficiently manage knowledge in projects, various strategies and tools have been applied over the years to support knowledge management (KM).Building information modelling (BIM) is a technology that has recently gained a lot of attention in the construction industry. The main feature of BIM is object-oriented and parametric modelling with the functions of dynamic visualisation, life cycle simulation, early analysis, coordination and collaborative working. Many studies have explored the functions of BIM mainly at the information level. However, only a few studies have considered the management of knowledge in a BIM environment. To fill this knowledge gap, this study explored the potential and expectation of a BIM-based system for early collaboration among contractor, facility management (FM) and design teams in the design stage. This study chose semi-structured interview as the main method to collect qualitative information. A total of 30 experts working in the construction industry were interviewed. On the basis of the analysis results of the collected information, a discussion was presented on how BIM can facilitate KM activities and relieve KM challenges. Therefore, the discussion focused on the requirements and expectations of the integrated KM system in a BIM environment that can facilitate the early involvement of construction contractors and the FM team into the design stage. This study also provides a new research direction for the transformation of research focus from BIM to building knowledge modelling. This paper is the revised version of the paper that has

“…One step forward is the Web-based prototype for live capture and reuse of constructionproject knowledge called Caprinet [23], which facilitates the collective learning of the participants involved in a project and can be reused during or after the project. Similarly, Moses et al [24] examine the issues involved in moving project data between two different instances of collaborative software in order to improve the exchange of information among project partners.…”

Aquesta és una còpia de la versió author's final draft d'un article publicat a la revista Automation in Construction. ABSTRACTResearchers often have to go to multiple information sources in order to identify highquality, time-critical information. Due to the dynamic and unstructured nature of research results, they are faced with such problems as distributed sources and interdisciplinary differences in terminology that prevent them from accessing the information they need. This paper presents the System for Active Knowledge Management (SAKM), a web-based system that addresses these problems by supporting effective information search and analysis, and by enhancing communication and collaboration among researchers. The system was implemented in the underground construction field, which has experienced tremendous growth and is facing increasingly complex and challenging research issues. Preliminary testing suggested that a tool like the SAKM could improve the information transfer of research results. The validation stage confirmed that the system met the requirements of the initially defined scenarios.
