But why is knowledge important and why has the knowledge-based enterprise so important in our modern economy? The world economy has exploded in size.

As a consequence, UK organisations have had to change their ways of doing business fundamentally in order to remain successful, whether its in the provision of products or services, or the retention of customers or the capability to fulfill investment aims or in attracting and retaining the right sort of employee.Competitiveness thrives on a number of capabilities and one of these is the ability to safeguard the knowledge inherent in your organisation.

It cant do what its supposed to be doing and as a result needn't exist as far as your competitors are concerned. If you rely on your customers to carry out a range of tasks for you (such as the completion of on-line applications) you are invisible too. Incompetent to your customers and other stakeholders if they cant communicate with you or get the information they need when they do contact you.
